From backyard to big dreams

Castle & Cubby began in our backyard in 2013, when we set out to create a space for our first child that encouraged imaginative play and a love of the outdoors. What started as a simple idea to earn a little extra while raising our young children soon became something much bigger. A single eBay listing grew into a thriving business, and more than a decade later, we are a team of 15 passionate people bringing play, creativity, and connection to families, schools, and communities across Australia.

We remain driven by the same belief that inspired us at the start: thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces have the power to foster confidence, curiosity, wellbeing, and a sense of belonging for children, families, and entire communities.
