About Odd Goose
We're a family business: Claire, Darren and our son and daughter aged nine and three!
Odd Goose started out because we wanted to give kids good quality stationery. Stationery that's both exciting and environmentally friendly. Stationery where every last component is traceable to a trustworthy manufacturer.
We make loads of our stock entirely by hand right here on our workbench. (Have a look at our How it's Made page showing how we made your notebook from scratch!) And we specially select the materials we work with because we want kids to properly feel that they have something unique.
We don't sell big corporate churn-outs here, we want kids to know that this stuff was really made for them. So every product begins with us sitting down and thinking about whether they would be excited enough to use it. And years of making activities and stationery for our own children has given us a good start in figuring out what that might be!

And where would Odd Goose be without our two chief stationery testers. Everything we make and sell has had to pass their high standards! Building Odd Goose from the ground up and running it day to day is a great adventure that all four of us are enjoying together.
