This week we have Hanna Lim, founder of LollaLand, the company behind the famous Lolla Cup. Hanna shares with us the story of how she started her company with nothing but an desire to create a product that would help kids like her daughter who had a hard time with the cups out in the market at the time. With no previous experience in the field Hanna managed to find a way to not only create her product but get her product on the famous show "Shark Tank" where it was picked up and it is now one of the top baby brand products in the market. Hanna is a mother of 3 beautiful girls, and runs her family company alongside her husband. She also shares with us a very interesting story of her experience in Korean "Wife School" and everything she learned there. Hanna's story is very inspiring story and proof that following your heart and making thins happen is always possible. This Episode and our "It's The Little Things" segment is brought to you by Munchkin, developing innovative, modern, and credible products for babies and children that make parents’ lives easier and more enjoyable by thinking of "the little things."
Hanna created the Lollacup to fill a void that she saw in the marketplace. When her daughter was nine-months-old, she was able to drink from a straw, and her pediatrician suggested weaning her directly to a straw instead of a traditional sippy cup. Hanna purchased several toddler straw cups but realized that her daughter couldn’t get a sip out of any of them. Inspired, she set out to create a cup with a valve-free straw and weighted end so that children could drink from the straw at any angle – and Lollacup was born. Hanna Lim is the mother of three daughters and is the co-founder and president of Lollaland. Prior to creating the Lollacup, Hanna received her Masters in Education at UCLA and worked as a high school chemistry teacher. In her spare time, she is active in several parenting groups, serves on the board of the Wellesley College Club of Pasadena, and is a volunteer member of Kidspace Museum’s Circle of Friends.
