How it all began

One ordinary day, two children found a rainbow in their garden

Not a far-off arc in the sky. This one touched the earth, close enough to step onto. Mia and Toto jumped on, and it carried them into eight wondrous worlds, each one holding a message just for them.

Jaany wrote the eight story-poems in her notebooks over many years, and Monika Suska painted them. They were made for children aged three to ten, to be read aloud at bedtime, at the kitchen table, under a tree. Each one is a quiet moment disguised as an adventure, and each one says the same thing in a different voice: you are not separate from the world. You are part of it, and it is part of you.

“Children are the future. We can help them learn, and learn from them too. Let them know life can be trusted. Let them stay open and loving. Let them keep being filled with wonder.”

Jaany, author of the eight worlds
Hold us to this

The Wundoria promise

We made eight public promises to every family who steps into our worlds — and we ask you to hold us to them.

Every story ends outside

We measure our success by the time your family spends outdoors — not the time you spend with us.

No scores. No streaks. No pressure. Ever.

Nothing in Wundoria is designed to make a child anxious to return. Wonder is the only pull we will ever use.

Rewards are earned in the real world

Medals come from things actually done — a tree actually visited, a sunset actually watched.

Your child is not our data

A first name and an age band. Nothing more — no tracking, no profiling, no advertising, ever.

Teachers see numbers, never names

The register that connects numbers to names stays in the teacher's hands, on paper, off our servers.

Grown-up matters stay behind the grown-up gate

A child alone with Wundoria can explore, wonder and play — and nothing else.

The people behind the worlds

Meet the makers

Wundoria is made by a small team who have spent years bringing these eight worlds to life — hover over a face to hear from them.

“The Wundoria story poems are pure charm and enchantment. They reach out to children with messages full of joy, affirmation, and wonder of nature — and, in doing so, they awakened those same feelings within me. Each story poem feels like a gentle gift, lighting and lifting the spirit.”

“It's my hope that the themes created will be one of the aspects that makes children want to come back to the book time and time again.”

Melissa Vaughn
“I found the content of several of Jaany's beautiful poems to be so deeply charged with personal meaning, and speak directly to my inner child, that more than once there were tears in my eyes and a smile on my lips as I was voicing the scripts.”
