These Japanese wooden toys from Chigo are great feat in minimalist design. We’re loving the simplicity of them! Every piece in the Chigo Playthings line is made from natural, local wood and is dyed using natural pigments. We can’t help but think that the kids around here would love the Chigo Cell Phone or Puzzle [...]

The Danish company Normann Copenhagen made us smile. Cute, right? The price tag’s not, but if you’re curious, check out the PLAY soapbox cart here. Jesper K. Thomas, the designer of the PLAY line, created the collection based on the idea that children’s furniture should be for children, not miniature copies of adult pieces.

It was under “What’s New” in the Children’s Ikea Tab — a fabulous  DUKTIG Mini-kitchen for $99 (the mircowave hutch is sold separately). We read around that it’s been up on the European Ikea site for awhile, so we’re happy to see that we can get it here in the US now!
Get this, the legs [...]

Ohhh, handmade finger puppets. We haven’t seen ones these cute for awhile. $4.00 for your pick. Click here!

We’re always looking for new and interesting rattles, so we can avoid plastic-y ones, and these Giraffe Rattles from Bundled fit the bill! They’re simple in shape, the patterns are great, and we just think they’d look cute in our homes. What more could we ask for?

Momoll had us at “Hello,” with their simply minimalist style.
Modern play kitchens, wooden farmhouses, plexiglass dollhouse/car towers, and crazy high-back faux-leather chairs?! — Really, we’re smitten! Now, if only we could find a way to get them to ship to the US.

If we could give Jargon Boy a virtual round of applause - we would.
Why? Because we’re loving his M for Modern Alphabet Flash Cards. For $25 (includes shipping and handling), you can get cards that feature mind-blowingly great design and clean typography.
Plus, if you’re into art history like we are, or just appreciate great art, [...]

How neat is this? Sweet Poppy Cat on Etsy takes lambswool sweaters, washes them in eco-friendly detergent then “upcycles” them into cute plush toys for kids. We never thought anythings this cute could come from old sweaters we stashed away in the back of our closets!

Simplicity goes a long way when it comes to designing products for kids. Seriously, we think the most fabulous products are the ones that have clean, minimalist designs. Take these Bob’s Your Uncle Animal FlashCards — bright colors, clean, simple–no frills, just great graphics and awesome typography. Needless to say, we love them.
