Wooden Figures & Toys — Design over Mass Production
The Cubebots by Areaware are the classic: Cubebot Small and Cubebot Micro are wooden robots for bending, posing and collecting — made from FSC-certified beechwood. The Milo Cubebot adds a playful twist. The Block Party Figuren by Andy Rementer are colourful wooden figures for mixing and matching. The hand-carved wooden figures by boyhood transform iconic characters into minimalist design objects: the Mumin wooden figure, Hello Kitty wooden figure, Bob (Minions) and the Playmobil Man. From Ikonic come the minimalist wooden animals by Floris Hovers: the Wooden Animals Set (13 pieces), the Wooden Animals Farm Set and the Wooden Animals Wild Set. From Spring Copenhagen: the wooden rabbit Jumper (rabbit), the wooden Emoticon Silly and the wooden koala Matilda (Koala). For the little ones: Montessori toys by milin — SOPHIA THE CAT (lacing toy), COSMOS OF EMOTIONS (sorting toy) and COUNTING NUMBERS (counting stones).
Games & Cards — Analogue and Creative
Screen-free entertainment for children and families: Helvetiq brings compact games from Switzerland — Bandido (strategy game from age 6), Forest (family game), Omerta (brain burner) and Kompromat (game of chance meets strategy). From The School of Life come The Therapy Game and Snakes & Ladders — games that build emotional intelligence. The children’s book Big Ideas for Curious Minds brings philosophy into the nursery. The Animals playing cards and Cars playing cards by The Cool Club are illustrated playing cards with design standards. From Block Design come the Play cards in a tin. The Tracer Top spinning top by Craighill is a precision stainless-steel spinning top for hands big and small. And the table tennis set by Mr. Tischtennis brings design to the table.
Yoga, Mindfulness & Creative Books
The Kids Yoga cards by IMYOGI show 30 animal yoga poses for children — a playful way to train movement and mindfulness. The Partner Deck adds 30 partner exercises. The Affirmation Cards for Kids provide 30 self-affirmation exercises. From Stratier come the poster books: the XL poster “100 Differences” (65×100 cm search puzzle), the book “Grandma” and book “Grandpa” (memory books for grandparents) and the travel diary “On the Road” for family trips. From Gestalten Verlag come the children’s book “Who Invented It?” and the cookbook “Simply Delicious” for little chefs.
Kids’ Room & Bedding
Snurk children’s bedding turns every bed into an adventure: the Horse Rider bedding, the Mermaid bedding and the Princess bedding with photorealistic motifs. The Ice Cream Mirror by EO Elements Optimal is a wall mirror in ice cream shape — perfect for the nursery. The Kids Life Meter height chart by Donkey Products documents growth. And the Lucky Cat waving cat by Donkey Products brings luck to the shelf.
Gifts by Occasion
For the first day of school: the Cubebot Small or a Stratier travel diary “On the Road” — creative companions for a new chapter. For Christmas: the boyhood Mumin wooden figure, a Helvetiq family game like Forest or Snurk bedding for magical nights. As a small gift: the Animals playing cards by The Cool Club, the Tracer Top spinning top by Craighill or the Kids Yoga cards by IMYOGI.

Frequently Asked Questions
From what age are the toys suitable?
Most products are suitable from age 3. The milin Montessori toys (SOPHIA THE CAT, COUNTING NUMBERS) can be used from age 2, board games by Helvetiq like Bandido from age 6, and puzzles by parkside from age 10.
What do you give a child who already has everything?
Experiences over things: the Kids Yoga cards by IMYOGI, conversation games by The School of Life like The Therapy Game, or the Stratier poster books (XL poster “100 Differences”). The boyhood wooden figures (Mumin wooden figure, Playmobil Man) are also special because you cannot find them just anywhere.

The milin Montessori toys (COSMOS OF EMOTIONS, COUNTING NUMBERS) develop fine motor skills and number sense. The Kids Yoga cards train body awareness, the Affirmation Cards for Kids build self-confidence. Helvetiq games like Bandido sharpen strategic thinking.
Are there gifts for babies?
The smooth boyhood wooden figures (Hello Kitty wooden figure, Bob (Minions)) are safe and beautiful. The milin SOPHIA THE CAT and COUNTING NUMBERS are Montessori toys from age 2. The Ikonic Wooden Animals Farm Set in wood are minimalist and child-safe.
Are the products safe for children?
