Dana Point Dad Creates Children’s Line of Bedding

July 21, 2008 by GreatDad Writers Leave a Comment

A Dana Point entrepreneur has designed and created a new line of children’s themed bedding, clothing, books and crib sets based upon his pre school-aged son’s drawings of stick figures. “I saw my son and his friend’s drawing, or doodling really, and it seemed like a fun theme for kids,” says founder and parent of two Doug Smith. With this young minded inspiration, “The Sticklers” were born.

The Sticklers currently have three designs out now, and more in the works. “I started with race cars, and firefighters because those were the most natural for boys, the surfing design came out of my own passion for the beach,” says designer Doug Smith, “Kids really relate to this kind of home furnishings because it looks as if they had a hand in drawing it, rather than a movie of the month licensed product.” The Sticklers youthful designs will liven up any young child’s room, and let their imagination be the focal point of their bedroom.

The Sticklers have brought to life the characters used in the drawings, having assigned names and professions to each theme. Speedy Stickler is the professional race car driver in the Stickler family and has a whole informative storyline based upon this occupation, that is also available in a fun to read children’s book.

Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks is a series of conversations with experts on all aspects of the family adventure. With the perspective that “dads don’t always think like moms,” our mission is to support dad voices and our slightly different approaches to parenting. We’ll try to find solutions to every day challenges like getting kids off the couch and making STEM classes available for both boys and girls. But we’ll also tackle bigger issues when they come. The one main theme will be to support dads in the most important role of their lives that of being a great dad.
