March is Women’s History Month, a time to honor and recognize the significant contributions of women throughout history and contemporary society. At Hayllo, we believe in the importance of celebrating and acknowledging the achievements of women in all aspects of life.
To begin with, did you know that the first baby carrier was invented by a woman? Ann Moore, a nurse, patented the Snugli baby carrier in 1969, which revolutionized the way parents could carry their infants. Although the design has been updated over the years, the original Snugli design is still in use today.
The iconic Barbie doll was created by Ruth Handler, who co-founded Mattel with her husband in 1945. She created a three-dimensional version of her daughter’s paper dolls, which became a sensation. Another popular game, Monopoly, was invented by Elizabeth Magie in 1903. Initially named “The Landlord’s Game,” Magie designed it as a teaching tool to promote the idea of a single tax on land.
In addition to these inventors, we also want to recognize the countless women who have made significant contributions to society in various fields. From scientists like Marie Curie and Rosalind Franklin, to writers like Maya Angelou and Toni Morrison, to activists like Rosa Parks and Malala Yousafzai, women have changed the world in innumerable ways.
As we celebrate Women’s History Month, we invite you to explore our collection of baby essentials, toys, and gifts that celebrate the accomplishments of women. We are proud to support our mission of empowering and inspiring all children, regardless of their gender. By recognizing and honoring the achievements of women, we can continue to inspire future generations of women to pursue their dreams and make a significant impact on the world.
