"Hi! I'm Mai (pronounced "my"). Growing up, I often felt disconnected from my Asian identity. Now, as a mother, I want a different experience for my daughters—one where they feel proud of their Vietnamese and Chinese heritages and curious about the diverse cultures around them. But after years of distancing myself from my roots, I've often felt unsure about how to guide them.
Inspired by my daughters, I created Bo & Mei to make cultural learning accessible and joyful for everyone. Through thoughtfully designed creative activities, Bo & Mei is dedicated to fostering a world where every child feels a sense of pride and belonging in their unique cultural identities." ~ Mai
