Boundex® Cuddle Box™
How do you keep a baby or toddler engaged in a tiny home?
This question inspired Eileen to create the “Baby Boundex.” Her first prototypes quickly became a favorite at family gatherings, where little ones enjoyed exploring the soft, bouncy space. Watching them play, Eileen realized the Boundex could benefit many more children.
When Eileen partnered with Tumbl Trak in 2012, her insights into the benefits of soft, responsive Lycra showed just how perfectly the Boundex aligned with Tumbl Trak’s mission of creating safe, innovative, and practical products.
Today, the Boundex is used in clinical settings worldwide by physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech pathologists, trauma centers, school programs, and more. Families, too, have “jumped on board,” finding the Boundex a wonderful source of enriching and soothing sensory experiences for the home.
