The gift for the family with two traditions

A gift that gets passed down.

A box before every holiday they celebrate — the story, the celebration, and a bear dressed for the occasion. Both traditions. All year long.

Founding families get early access and a discount.

You're on the list. 🐻 We'll be in touch when Forebear is ready — founding families first.

You know a family holding two traditions. You've watched them wonder how to give their kids both.

Two traditions means twice the stories, twice the celebrations — and twice the figuring out. The holiday has a way of arriving before anyone's decided how to explain it to a four-year-old.

Forebear shows up at their door before every holiday with everything they need to celebrate — the story, the ritual, the fun.

No planning ✦ No guilt ✦ No 10pm Googling or overnight Prime

That's the year worth giving.

Different holidays.
Each with a lesson
worth passing on.

Every Forebear box is built around the universal lesson that lives inside the holiday.

Diwali is about light winning. Hanukkah is about courage in the dark. Passover is about fighting for freedom. Holi is about joy and starting fresh.

That's why Forebear works for every family — especially the ones who aren't sure what they believe, but know exactly what they want their kids to carry.

"A parent doesn't need to be religious to want to pass on Diwali's lessons to their child. A child doesn't need to go to synagogue to understand what Passover is all about."

What's in every box

A box that shows up right before the holiday.

Before every holiday, a Forebear box arrives — everything a family needs to make it meaningful, memorable, and actually fun.

The Forebear box — kraft with botanical illustration

The Box

Kraft, botanical, beautiful. Shows up before every holiday like it was always coming.

The Book

A beautifully illustrated story built around the lesson inside the holiday. Something a 4-year-old feels and a parent remembers.

The Forebear activity kit — linen bag and candle

The Activity Kit

Something to do, touch, taste, or spin. Every box has at least one thing a kid can hold in their hands. The kit makes the holiday real.

The Diwali Forebear — bear in kurta with red shawl

The Bear

Dressed for the occasion — every time. Theirs to keep. One bear per tradition, each one a little different.

The collection

Every tradition has a Forebear.

Whatever traditions live in the house, Forebear shows up for all of them.

The Forebear dressed for seven traditions — Hanukkah, Diwali, Eid, Christmas, Holi, Lunar New Year, and Rosh Hashanah

More traditions coming. If your family's isn't here yet, join the waitlist and tell us.

Pricing

Gift a year of traditions.

Six boxes. Three from each tradition. One year of showing up.

A year of Forebear

$350

A Jewish + Hindu family gets Rosh Hashanah, Hanukkah, and Passover — plus Diwali, Holi, and Raksha Bandhan. Six holidays, both traditions, equally.

One payment, about $58 a box. Not an auto-renewing subscription — a year of Forebear, given whole. Sounds like a lot for a box set. Sounds exactly right for the gift they'll still be talking about in twenty years.

Founding families get an additional discount. Join the waitlist to lock it in.

Our story

Why we built this

We're an interfaith couple — one of us Jewish, one Indian-American and raised Hindu. When our son was born, we started talking about how to give him both of his heritages.

Neither of us is particularly religious, and both of us are very busy. We looked for something that could help us celebrate our traditions with our son — something warm, fun, not preachy, that would make both traditions feel real for him. There was nothing.

So we built Forebear.
