Why We Created This

We’re Kristin and Derek, a husband-and-wife team who have always felt called to make a difference for children. Our youngest generation will soon grow up in a world where anxiety, bullying, A.I. voices, and the harmful effects of social media have become the norm.

So we believe the best defense is a strong foundation built early, when little ones’ hearts are still open and their confidence is unshaken.


Through gentle storytelling and relatable emotional journeys, Brudders helps kids navigate big feelings, face real-life challenges, and grow in confidence and character.

Our hope is that as kids grow, they’ll carry the love and peace of these stories with them, standing strong in who they are and the unique gifts they’re meant to bring to this world.
