During the 2014 Christmas season Mr. Mcgroovy’s partnered with Amazon, using the Fulfilled By Amazon platform. Since then sales have been growing, and we decided to migrate our whole product line to Amazon. We are getting ready for Christmas 2016, and need help getting our supplies to make rivet kits. We are excited to team up with the Kickfurther Co-Op community to meet this goal. Thank You!

“Mr. McGroovy” was the nickname given to Andy McGrew by some fifth grade students his first year teaching elementary art in 1995. He taught elementary art from 1995 to 2000, and switched careers shortly after the birth of his first son. Mr. McGroovy’s Box Rivets™ grew out of a project idea from his days as an art teacher. Building box structures is an absolutely great activity for kids, so… when his son turned five and needed a backyard castle for his “knights and princesses” party theme Andy and his wife Savanna decided to build it themselves.
Sadly, Andy McGrew passed away in 2012. The business is still run today by his widow Savanna and their two sons out of the family garage.
