plastic packaging is wasteful

“How are they getting away with this??”

Paola Dyboski

That was Ziggy’s question as I returned from the Spielwarenmesse, the Nuremberg international toy fair.  One of the perks of doing trade shows is the chance to go home with a couple of cool pressies for the kids - and so, there I was with gifts for Ziggy, my now 14 year old.  He is the namesake, and very much the boss of Dr Zigs , and he is the reason I started the company.

Dr Zigs and Net Zero

Paola Dyboski
Paola presented on our Dr Zigs change in packaging - how by using flat rectangular bottles in large letter size packaging we were able to reduce our carbon footprint by one third. I talked about our use of natural materials, including bamboo and coconut, and about our first totally plastic free Bubble Kit.  It felt good to share.

Bubble Therapy in School: A Teacher’s Perspective

Bubble Therapy in School: A Teacher’s Perspective

Paola Dyboski
We know our Bubbles are loved by children but did you know that they’re loved by teachers too?! We’ve had more and more teachers reach out to us to rejoice in the effect Dr Zigs Bubbles have had on their class, or how happy the school was at the end-of-term fun day when someone brought them in. We’ve had Science teachers come to us telling us all about how they’ve used our kits to help children understand surface tension and basic physics.
YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH DAY

YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH DAY

Paola Dyboski
Most of us now understand Mental Health, and we are tuned in to noticing days when things arent’ going so well.  Words like ‘mental health hygiene’ and ‘solution-focused therapy’ are making their way into our everyday vocabulary.   And slowly the stigma surrounding depression, anxiety, and mental illnesses dropping away, particulary amongst the younger generation.  
Bubble Therapy

Bubble Therapy

Paola Dyboski
Mental health across all ages is on the decline and the stigma surrounding it is making it more and more difficult for people to reach out for help or even admit they’re struggling. We want to help change that. It’s ok not to be ok and Mental Health Matters aren’t just trendy hashtags and sound bytes to parrot off, here at Dr Zigs we take Mental Health seriously. This isn’t just about getting Bubble sales either, our Bubbles really do make a difference to your mental well-being. Bubble Therapy is a wonderful mindfulness tool and is brilliant for every age to practice and unwind.
