We are happy to now carry the complete line of Cuboro marble run sets, from the Cuboro Cugolino and Cugolino Pop sets for younger children, to the building blocks and six-pack sets to add greater functionality to your marble runs.
The six-pack sets are especially useful, either to augment the larger sets that they reflect, or […]

We have the three bears:

This is a spectacular set, smoothly finished and wonderful to hold. They range from a Baby Bear of 1 3/4 inches to a quite substantial Papa Bear, who fills an adult’s hand. In this case, Goldilocks will find that all three are just right.

We’re very excited to be able to offer three new baby toys–new to us, that is. They are the Fish Rattle, disk grasping toy and wooden rattle ball, three designs in the “Spielzeug Allbedeut” series by the German philosopher Hugo Kuekelhaus. They are made by a workshop for the mentally handicapped in Germany, and are […]

We are very happy to announce that we have received a number of the new Ostheimer figures for 2006. Among our very favorites are the Giant, the Unicorn, and a redesigned Red Riding Hood. We have also fallen in love with the Star Catcher, whose story (included on her page) is one of the loveliest […]

Another great craft project for rainy days, car trips and quiet times! The star-shaped frame of our new Braid-Weaving Star allows children to make braids of wool without needing a needle!

For those customers who have been looking for an abacus to use for learning or in a play store, we are happy to now offer a handsome abacus from Bajo. The colored beads contrast beautifully with the natural wood of the frame. A great addition to the playroom!

We’ve just added a beautiful new pull toy with two horses for toddlers, which may be viewed here. We love the smoothness of the natural wood, and the charming movement of the horses as they are pulled along!

Several customers have written or called to ask about our Fagus cars and trucks: Although we just got a shipment in, already several show that they are “Sold Out”.
There is a simple explanation for this, so do not despair! Some of the newest items were not yet in full production when we placed our order, […]

The returning customer may have noticed several new categories within our store, coinciding with our recent shipment from Germany. We are proud to now offer several beautiful musical instruments that are great fun to play and wonderful to hear. We have expanded our doll selection to include wooden dolls and some unique dollhouses, as well […]

How delightful a little figure is Nurmi the Ramp Walker! She has a simple yet pleasing design, and her movement down the ramp is sure to charm (and intrigue) any viewer. She is one of those toys that you can’t resist playing with again and again, and she always brings a smile to your face.
