Trixie
All you need to design the bedroom with a fresh and imaginative style. The choice of colors is very creative: terracotta for the sleep bag, baby blue for the baby food accessories, mint green for the containers, ocher yellow for the carpet, and gray shades for the cradle.
Play&Go
The Belgian brand became famous for its colorful Play & Go storage bag/play mat: children can have fun and dream as long as they want, while parents can collect all the toys by simply pulling the strings, which will transform the comfy play mat into a large sack.
Llttle Unicorn
Cuddles and tenderness translate into simple and functional objects helping mothers and fathers taking care of their babies.

And also, covers, sleep bags and sponges, all decorated with original prints.
Plantoys

Today, it is committed to minimizing any environmental impact throughout the entire production process and creates toys in total harmony with nature to support children's psychophysical development.

Brand of Fond of Bags, the German company leader in Europe for the production of backpacks of all kinds. For the little ones, here are the animal-shaped backpacks, made with 50% recycled plastic, as well as equipped with hi-vis details. Great attention to ergonomics. The backrest is in breathable materials.
Jaq Jaq Bird
The brand is the brainchild of Grace, a South Korean-American mother: her first invention was the roll-up blackboard/placemat. Grace began selling the few pieces she had created with her hands, but the turning point came when HGTV (an American TV channel) asked her to use her board for an episode of a TV series. The success was immediate.
Scoot & Ride

With no PVC and only certified suppliers, the scooters are designed to be reused over time and repaired in case of damage. The packaging, designed to reduce cardboard waste and CO2 emissions, is also innovative.

The unique concept of creative fun combines ease of execution with beautiful results.
Mellipou
When she was about to become a mother, Marie Valton desperately looked for a music box for her daughter but couldn't find what she wanted. Thus her first creation was born: a cloud-shaped music box with a very special lullaby: Michael Jackson's "Thriller"! She has been making musical objects ever since.
