Timeless handmade toys crafted in Wanaka. Gingham carriers, plush dolls & crochet toys designed for imaginative play and made to become cherished heirlooms.

Childhood deserves toys that spark something real. Children thrive on open-ended playthings that invite imagination, creation, and are returned to again and again.

Our Nostalgic Toys are handcrafted in our Wanaka studio with a single purpose: to inspire the kind of play that builds worlds. Each piece is made from premium natural fabrics (beautiful cottons, pure linens) and are designed to endure years of love, washing and imaginative adventures. These aren't toys that entertain for a moment and then sit forgotten. They're companions that grow with a child, adapting to whatever story needs telling.

We believe in the beauty of simplicity. A baby carrier becomes a nurturing game and a connection to caregiving and empathy. A soft toy becomes a confidant, a co-adventurer and comfort in uncertain moments. Interchangeable clothing invites creativity and ownership. These are the toys that travel well, that grandparents can send with confidence, that parents treasure because they see their child truly engaged.

Every piece is hand-stitched, thoughtfully created, and built to last. They're designed to be passed down, not thrown away; to become part of family stories, not landfill.
