Finn (also known as Kinny) is the mascot of Kinny Box. When trying to determine a name for Kinny Box, Ashley was thinking of cute words her toddler mispronounces. For a long time she said Kinny instead of Finny. Simultaneously, Ashley knew she wanted there to be a reading component for every lesson plan and was thinking about writing mini books to go along with the lessons. That's when it all came together and Kinny was born- our mascot and main character of Kinny Box!
