This company was started by a mother and daughter duo, whom refer to themselves as big bee and little bee. Marlo (little bee) came up with the idea of wanting a place to put her markers when she is drawing. Out of this was born the Marker Parker. A hexagon-shaped marker cap holder. Where kids can easily grab a marker, use it, and then put it back in its proper cap in the Marker Parker. Amy (big bee) simply takes little bees’ ideas and helps to turn them into reality. They were recently on Shark Tank and have been on numerous morning shows. They have since grown their product line, to now include the ScrubBEE. Another invention by Marlo that caters to the smaller hands of preschoolers. It is designed to gently clean a baby’s delicate skin and scalp, help a toddler or preschooler learn good hygiene in the tub and at the sink, and encourage even big kids to effectively scrub their dirty hands, body, and face. A product that’s built to grow with her. It is so cool to see how far this mother-and-daughter-duo has come. Marlo’s creativity at such a young age shows much promise for her entrepreneurial journey in the years to come.
Amy found a solution to the problem her daughter was having, and I think it is so sweet how her daughter is a part of the business. They found a new niche of business and it is so cool how they were able to be on Shark Tank. Marlo showed entrepreneurial characteristics at a young age, so it will be interesting to see where life takes her when she is older!
This is an adorable business. I love how the mom and kid made the company together and problem solved. So cute!
