Hey Amarillo is a weekly, one-on-one interview podcast featuring the people and stories of Amarillo, Texas

Oct 7, 2024

A conversation with Maile Srader, the proprietor of Purposeful Play Busy Bags, an educational supply store near 34th & Georgia in Westhaven Village. This storefront offers sensory bins, learning binders and fidgets for families, teachers, therapists and more, based on materials Srader developed and used during her teaching career and then as a homeschooling parent. In this episode, she tells host Jason Boyett about her family's journey through foster care, how her business has introduced her to multiple communities within Amarillo, and why her customers have responded so strongly to these products. This episode is supported by SKP Creative / Amarillo Tribune, La-Z-Boy of Amarillo and Panhandle Plains Historical Museum.
