The toys my kids like the best aren't always the 'must-have' toys we see on the shelves at local stores. They are typically more interested in the high quality, simple toys...a lot like the ones I played with growing up. What I like about simple toys, is that they usually encourage creativity and open ended play. I am always looking for high quality and educational toys that my kids will love, and thanks to Maukilo, it's now easy for me to find something for each stage and age my kids are at.
I reviewed Maukilo and their amazing selection of toys a while back. For those who may have missed it, or don't know a whole lot about them, here is a quick recap. Maukilo was born in 2000, when Alexandra Goedrich couldn't find any of the toys that she grew up playing with, here in the US. She began an ecommerce site specializing in the sale of European toys, but the business soon outgrew the small California apartment it started in as Americans discovered brands like HABA and more! Over the years, Maukilo has grown to offer a wide selection of wood and PVC-free plastic toys and games from more than 40 European and American based companies. Their goal is to provide toys that are made to last, so that any toy can withstand the test of time and be passed onto the next generation, which meets the company's motto of "Buy Once, Play Forever".
Spring is a popular time for baby showers, and Maukilo.com is a fantastic source for high quality European and American toys and baby gear. As a way to get the word out about some of the amazing baby and toddler gift ideas that Maukilo offers...I was asked to review one of the Deglingos Milkos the Cow toys .
Knowing how much we enjoyed our experience with Maukilo products in the past, I was very excited to receive Deglingos Baby Milkos the Cow and test it out with Kaden. He is just beginning to grasp and hold onto things more, so a new age appropriate toy couldn't have come at a better time! When our Deglingo arrived, I couldn't have been happier with the quality. It is very well made, and I can tell, will withstand the wear and tear of play, teething, etc!
I was also impressed with how soft it is. There are many plastic toys and things that are not all that easy for Kaden to grasp and chew on. This however is made of wide-wale corduroy and is perfect for his little hands and gentle on his sensitive skin. He LOVES to teeth on it, sleep with it, cuddle with it...you name it! The Deglingo cow is brightly colored, textured for sensory experience, and the perfect size for little ones 3M+.
If you are looking for high quality and safe gift ideas for babies and toddlers, you will definitely want to check out Maukilo! The toys they offer are made to last and cherish for years to come. I would recommend their products to any parent I know.
Buy It: You can purchase Deglingos Milkos the Cow from the Maukilo website for $19.99.
