The ideal toy for each age phase

Het ideale speelgoed per leeftijdsfase

How hard it can be to pick out the right toy, huh? Toys for your own child, but it may be even more difficult to choose the right toy as a gift for another child. Of course you want to buy the right thing and come up with the right gift! You prefer something that the child has not yet received or that someone else has not yet bought, something that is age-appropriate and preferably a gift that the child enjoys playing with! The selection is large, so it is logical that sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees.

We try to offer you some help by taking you through our range of toys, personalized items, maternity gifts and clothes, sorted by age.

Maternity gift
Which maternity gift will you really please the new parents with? You prefer to give a particularly unique gift that will be remembered with a smile.
We have personalized gifts in our range. For example, consider a suitcase with name or a money box with name. If you wish, you could of course fill the suitcase with handy and fun gifts such as a romper, hydrophilic cloth, socks, a play suit, a nice cuddly toy, a rattle or a music box. The heartbeat cuddly toys that we have in our range are also a good tip! Perhaps also very nice for the parents' night's sleep!
A nice gift for mom is one of the beautiful fill-in books that we offer, so that she can keep track of the first time with the little one!

For an older brother or sister, the arrival of a baby can take some getting used to. The maternity visit that comes especially for the baby can also be strange for a brother or sister. Suddenly all attention goes to the newcomer. You can sometimes make this a little easier by also bringing a small gift for this child.

 

From 0 to about 3 months

The first few weeks after your little one is born, his/her world is still very small and your own fingers and fists will be enough to entertain the child. Enjoying and making people feel welcome is paramount during that period, where soft cuddly cloths and sweet cuddly toys come into their own. What's more fun than giving a hug that will last throughout childhood (or sometimes longer).
This phase lends itself very well to toys to listen to or watch. Think of a nice mobile, a music box or a box toy to look at with beautiful colors.

 

From 3 months

Developing the senses in these months is very important and a big goal. Nice colors help with this, but also sound and structure in the toys. A baby also really learns to grab things. Rattles, noise-making cuddly toys and teething toys are perfect for this period.

From 9 months

The little one is getting bigger and is now also picking up, recognizing and imitating things. That is why blocks and games with shapes are great fun for this age. The best thing is to play with these toys together, so that the actions can be copied!

From 1 year

Development is going very fast at the moment. Fine motor skills are more developed and the toddler will want to touch everything. Toys where little things have to be done in or on something else are therefore popular and help hand-eye coordination. Abacuses, where the bead has to go from one side to the other, are also good for this age (although they will not yet be used for counting).

From 2 years

The imagination of children at this age is enormous. They can enjoy themselves and each other without having to do much. Still, small kitchens, cash registers and anything that resembles real life are great fun to promote this fantasy! Let them scoop ice cream, scan the supermarket products or toast the bread. In addition, games to train the memory, such as memory and puzzles, are great fun.
