I just stumbled upon this Color Doudous Game from Djeco, and I think it looks like a lot of fun. This card game is designed for children ages 4-7 and requires kids to match cards according to color or animal type. The cards have the zany appeal of Djeco’s animal toys. You can purchase the game for $13.50 at moolka.com. While I haven’t played it, I can vouch for the quality of the many Djeco toys we already own.

We are huge fans of Djeco at our house. In particular, their kitchen toys have been a huge success. We have the Birthday Tea Time set and the little pink kitchen, and both have been favorites from the day they entered our home. The play we have gotten out of them more than justifies the price. So, I was pretty excited when I discovered this new picnic play set. It has the fun, colorful look that marks these toys. I love the basket, too, because everything can be packed neatly away. I’m thinking that if I buy this for my daughter for the holidays, we will finally be able to retire the ugly plastic shopping basket that she currently uses for playing picnic. You can purchase this set on sale for $53.99 at moolka.com.

Our fridge is covered in all sorts of magnetic toys, letters and numbers in the hopes of entertaining my son while I’m busy in the kitchen. These fancy wooden letters by Djeco are possibly the most attractive ones I’ve seen. The best thing is that they are not only magnetic but are wooden too, so maybe I can finally get rid of the generic plastic ones we have scattered around. These are sure to make learning the alphabet and to spell out words much more entertaining with their bright multi-colored and fun designs.
These letters come in a set of 38 wonderfully colorful magnets guaranteed to cheer up any dreary looking fridge. They are made by Paris based company Djeco who have been producing superior products for children for over 50 years. They are made from high quality wood and paint and either meet or exceed European Safety Standards. They are for children ages 3 and older and are available at PetitBaby.com for $19.99.

With my daughter’s third birthday, my due date, and Christmas all within a week of each other, I’m trying to get a head start on holiday shopping. This Tea Time Set by Djeco is one of the toys that I have purchased for my toddler. We have the kitchen that matches this set, and it has been a big hit. I have wanted to purchase this coordinating tea set for her since we got the kitchen, but it was sold out for quite a while. I am excited to say that it is back in stock.
I haven’t taken it out of the box, but I can tell already that I love it. Made from the same high-quality wood and child safe paints as the kitchen, this set includes all of the pieces you and your child will need to have a wonderful tea party. The pink and green color scheme is quite inviting, too. You can purchase the set for $45.99 at oompa.com.

This is an amazing toy from the French company Djeco is sure to inspire your toddler’s imagination. My sister bought a slightly older version of this toy as a first birthday gift for my younger daughter, and it has been a favorite in our home for over a year.
Even my nine year old has been known to play with it from time to time, and visiting children are usually drawn to it almost immediately. When I first received the product in the mail, I was shocked at how small it was (10” L x 14.5” W x 17.5” H), as I am used to much larger play kitchens.
The small size turned out to be a blessing, though, because it takes up little space and is easy to move from one location to another. My daughter also enjoys sitting on the floor while she plays with it.
I love the bright colors, and was thankful that it was very easy to assemble. Knowing that the product is made of wood and decorated with only non-toxic paints and finishes makes me feel even better about having it in our home. You can purchase one for $97.99 at www.oompatoys.com.

After all of the lead scares in the past year, I feel a lot better about spending money on quality toys. I love the beautiful wooden toys from the French company Djeco. This pull toy is one of my favorite of the Djeco toys that we have. My daughter received it for Christmas more than a year ago and is still fascinated by it. This silly looking kitty is definitely a conversation starter. She is made out of solid wood and painted with non-toxic, kid-friendly paints. You can pull her along by her string, or just roll her on the floor. Ours has held up well considering how much it has been used. You can pick one up at oompatoys.com for $31.99.
