Shop NowHello! We are the Hinkles. We live just outside of Chicago and our story is about family and a labor of love.
As parents of five active kids, we live the daily struggle of ‘so much to do, so little time.’ The days are long, toys are strewn across the house and someone always needs something. Chaos rules. And we know we’re not alone!
Creative QT — which stands for Creative Quality Time — has been a labor of love. We’ve designed our kids toy storage and STEM Education products as parents, for parents — because we saw an opportunity and a need.
Living in the trenches ourselves has sparked our product ideas for giving parents a "win!" every day. We create high-quality products for organizing and storing toys – stuffed animals, LEGO™s, Hot Wheels, dolls, and more. All to help you enjoy more quality time as a family ... and less time tidying up!
Here are a few of our favorite April Fool's Day prank ideas we've done to our kids over the years. Most of which are last minute ideas (cause that's how we roll)!
Creative QT® co-owner, Adam Hinkle, lovingly refers toPixel Bricks™ as 'LEGO™ glitter' because they do seem to have a way of finding their way all over the floor if not properly stored. The good news is, however, we have loads of simple and affordable ways to store them all in this one blog.
