Where We Are Going

OUR STORY

Karen Frandsen first began drawing kids to decorate her classrooms. Karen's Kids were officially born in 1987 when she created her first three products. Since then these amusing little characters have continued to grow in popularity. They stand for helping and serving and taking care of each other. Today Karen devotes her time to illustrating and creating new ideas and working on projects that support a creative, safe and character-building environment for children. According to customers, their "...timeless and universal appeal warms the hearts of adults and children today and will endure and enchant for years to come."


KAREN

What is important to me? ...God, family, friends, children, illustrating, creating, reading, Saturday morning cartoons, and green tea. My love for children and teaching were a perfect match. The runny noses, untied shoes, giggles, silly words, tears, sticky fingers, bandaids, talking animals and monsters in the closet became part of Karen's Kids and their story. The reason Karen's Kids motto is "...sharing, caring and working together, helping to make the world a better place." is because, as Alfred A. Peterson wrote, 'Our children are watching us live, and what we ARE shouts louder than anything we say.' It is our responsibility to model respect, character, honesty, integrity and courage to our children.


OUR MISSION

Our mission is to promote integrity, honesty, respect, excellence and caring for others through our actions, our decisions and through the images, products and ideas we create. It is our purpose to make a difference to the children of this generation by developing images and products that stand for and promote these traits.


WHERE WE ARE GOING

Karen's Kids are ready to decorate dolls, toys, puppets, games, educational items, children's clothing, fabric, bedding, gift collectibles, all kinds of merchandise and products. Besides drawing new images Karen creates all kinds of products using the characters including educational, interactive teaching tools, gift items, picture books, dolls, bedding, room decor and so much more.
