Founded by Kay, a former PTA/PTO President, our family-owned and operated business is proudly located in Keller, TX. Led now by Kay’s daughter Jennifer, we have been dedicated to spreading joy for over two decades!


Seeing children's faces light up as they select gifts for loved ones drives our mission. At Penguin Patch, we believe in empowering through the act of giving.
