Open the Joy

Activity kits for children going through difficult times - a store as warm as the mission behind it.

Creative activity kits designed to inspire joy, connection, and comfort when children need it most.

Open The Joy was founded by Shalini Samtani after her youngest child was diagnosed with a rare disease. From that experience came a brand built around screen-free activity kits designed in consultation with child therapists - to bring hope, laughter, and connection to children in hospital or recovering at home.

These are by far the best people I have worked with, they do a ton of work for what they charge and could honestly charge more. No other firm has come close to the quality this team produced. They did a store redesign for me that tops the prior design in every single aspect.

This is Ambiw’s second WooCommerce-to-Shopify website migration for me. The reason I returned to Ambiw was simple. They do a fantastic job. Great customer service, attention to all the big and small details that make a website fantastic.

I started my business knowing next to nothing, but this Ambiw team made the journey so much easier. They’ve been reliable, flexible, and always ready to solve any problem. Honestly, they feel like part of my own team. They don’t just handle the Shopify side-they also share smart feedback on market trends and what’s working out there.

The Ambiw team is professional, capable, and truly provides 5-star service. They were requested to build a Shopify store that is highly detailed and fully customized. They were able to deliver on every detail and element requested. Their professionalism and communication between the team and with the client are extraordinary.
