Five products for under five year olds

Raising little ones under five? These are the five handcrafted products parents just like you keep coming back for. From first steps to messy masterpieces, each one is built to support your toddler’s independence, creativity and confidence — while making everyday life a little easier for you too.

You don’t need a house full of toys — just a few thoughtfully designed, beautifully built essentials that truly grow with your child. We asked our community which pieces they couldn’t live without, and these five stood out again and again.

Each product in this collection is handcrafted in our Cape Town workshop, inspired by Montessori principles and shaped by real-life parenting needs because raising kids under five is no small job. These are tools that help toddlers explore their world safely, build confidence, and connect with you through everyday moments that matter
