✨Happy First Day of Autumn✨

Ah🍂🥰
My absolute most favourite time of the year is officially here!
Fall. Autumn. Harvest. Sweater weather. Pumpkin spice season. I don’t care, whatever you want to call it….I’m HERE for it!

I’ve been busy setting up my Autumn themed ‘Wonder Shelves’ and ‘Loose Parts Labs’ for my Grade Ones in the classroom, and for my own toddler crew at home🧡
Our adorable Autumn Stacking Tree will be taking centre stage, along with our little bumpy pumpkins! I can’t wait to hear what stories the kiddos will create this season!

🍂Happy Fall!🍂

Puzzles have been hands down, our most requested toy from our followers, for YEARS! And we can’t blame you, because we love a good puzzle around here too. So here it is! Our version of a classic wooden puzzle, designed with open-ended play in mind 🧩

✨Bunnies Galore!✨

I was setting up this little Spring shelfie so I could take some photos of our sweet little bunnies, and it took our three year old approximately 2.7 seconds to insist on helping me🧡All of the wooden toys that we make over here are thoroughly tested by our three little toy testers!…they take this job very seriously and tutus are usually the uniform of choice while on the job. We hope you are as smitten with our bunnies as we are!

✨Something cute for your scroll!✨

Our Stacking Eggs come in a set of 3, with 3 pieces each. I love how the natural wood grain peeks through the pastel colours we have chosen for this set🧡

Easter is less than 5 weeks and we have been having a lot of fun over here getting ready for the Bunny to visit!🐰

✨Hoppy Monday!✨

✨”We don’t stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing.” George Bernard Shaw✨

There is no doubt how important play is for a child. Development, self-discovery, meaning-making, well-being, and an understanding of how the world works and turns, is all wrapped up into the many forms of play that a child embraces all day long. It’s natural for them!

We know all of this to be true, and we are confident that our hand crafted toys add value to the magic of play within childhood. But it is also our hope that our toys create infinite possibilities for connection between a parent and their child. We hope that you want to pick up our toys too 🧡 that they inspire you to cozy up onto the floor and settle in for a session of small world play with your little ones.

✨This is one of the reasons why we design our toys to be inviting and timelessly beautiful. So that YOU feel as happy as your child, to have our toys sprinkled around your home, in various stages of play.✨

🧡We can’t wait to keep creating for you🧡

✨Psst… Did you know? Easter is sneaking up on us—it’s only 6 weeks away! 🐣✨

If you had your hopes on adding our handmade wooden toys to an Easter basket this year, please make sure to hop on over to our website to place your order. This is so we have plenty of time to hand craft your toys and get them to you before the Big Bunny arrives!🐰

We can’t wait to help you add a touch of whimsy and childhood magic to your Spring and Easter season!✨
