Gifts for toddlers: toys to build, push + play pretend
Between their first and third birthdays, children become mobile and want to do and try everything themselves. Toys can now roll, stack and invite pretend play. Here you will find gift ideas that accompany this stage and bring joy for a long time.
Vehicles + building blocks
The sturdy wooden vehicles from Fagus are made for little hands and last for years. For building, there are wooden blocks and Nins from GRAPAT, the glowing Luminous Blocks and X-Bricks from Bauspiel, plus light cork blocks and the E-Cork Racer from Korko.
Play, cuddle + copy
With the play kitchen, picnic set and bath toys from LIEWOOD, everyday life is acted out. Play tents and cushions from KOOJA create a cosy hideaway, and ecoBirdy’s children’s furniture, lamps and coat racks made from recycled plastic bring colour to the nursery.
