Pretend play is one of the best gifts you can give your child. Our friends at The Little Door have carefully curated well-designed and natural wooden toys from Japan that encourage imaginary play. The gorgeous colours and classically beautiful design encourage young minds’ curiosity and small hands to play unhindered. We’re loving the wooden cooking and tea sets ($60 – $650) which are perfect for role playing and sparking imagination with young friends. The solid wood and non-toxic paint make these toys safe for every age. Plus, the parts that make up the vegetables, produce and cake attach to each other by magnets making the toys fun to cut and serve up yet durable at the same time. Suitable for children aged 3 and up, these sets are bound to inspire your youngest chefs!

If there’s one thing we love; it’s wooden toys. Children develop so much through sensory experiences in their early years and plastic just doesn’t offer much in the way of sensory exploration.

We love the starter set of 24 pieces ($699) which will keep your kiddos playing all holiday long (and beyond!).
