Our Story

Yin&Yay is a clever, fun and optimistic brand thats remains youthful and fresh to kiddos and parents alike. We are influenced by our vibrant city, San Francisco, and we are forever rooted and inspired by our beloved hometown, Beirut.

We want to hold on to our cultural identities and celebrate it with our communities.

  • Curating Reading by Developmental Stage

    0m+ | 1m+ | 3m+ | 6m+ | 9m+ | 12m+

    Starting from as young as a newborn, each of our books is created to match baby’s sensory & motor development at that specific age. We have 3 books in our collection so far, and we’re adding more.

  • Culturally Relevant and Bilingual Stories

    It’s really important for us to represent our beautiful Arabic culture and customs in our stories and in our book, and that includes our language. We’re having fun being playful and creating new ways we can interact with Arabic & English in print form.

  • Montessori-Inspired Approach

    Foster independence and confidence. We’re writing and designing content for the child’s ability and developmental stage. Our stories reflect the practical real life, to empower our child and grow her imagination.
