Hoohobbers who?
In 1979 Bill and Judy Sommerschield and their two young daughters were having Thanksgiving dinner with Bill’s parents.

Hoohobbers products can be divided into two major categories:
HARD GOODS -this is what we call our 'furniture' items. We use this term to avoid using the word "furniture", a word which connotes bulky, heavy stationary items. Our 'hard goods' are totally different: they're lightweight, fold to be portable and plenty durable. They take abuse children often give. And assembly is never required; they're good to go the moment you open the box.
SOFT GOODS -these fabric items range from bedding to bibs, art smocks to Moses Baskets.
For over 30 years, Hoohobbers products have received frequent, enthusiastic third party endorsements customer comments
Hoohobbers offers personalizing (details) and customizing (details) services in quick turn-around times. We will also design product using your materials.

Our eight 'hard goods' are so compact,
you could actually hold all of them in your arms at the same time.

We believe this fact is as remarkable as it is helpful in today's mobile society.

No other company makes such a compact, portable line of children's products;
products children -themselves- carry and use...anywhere...anytime.
