Honeycomb is St. Louis’ own community-focused, child-inspired shop for parents and kids. This shop celebrates children’s creativity, encourages everyone to channel their inner child and fosters a safe space for exploration, discovery and connection. And now… we want to include even NON-READERS into their summer reading program.

Honeycomb was conceptualized and born from the minds and hearts of St. Louis natives Angela Giancola and Zoë Kaemmerer. It began with a child’s suggestion and a desire to create sustainable, unique and engaging products. When Giancola was looking for children’s gifts, she often found she created her most cherished items from vintage or preowned toys and materials.

But her life became busy and she shelved the idea until her daughter Aviv presented her with a book that said “Honeycomb”. This small gesture inspired Giancola to fill a niche St. Louis was missing, a retail store that was community focused and children inspired. Queue Kaemmerer, who was dreaming of a similar concept. Together, the two women brought Honeycomb to life in late night meetings, early mornings in coffee shops and notes on napkins.

The result is more than a shop that thoughtfully curates sustainably-made quality garments, wears and toys from local and international companies. Honeycomb is a space that celebrates children’s creativity, encourages everyone to channel their inner child and fosters a safe space for exploration, discovery and connection.
