For the Little Ones

Looking for a gift for a young child this Christmas? Here are a few ideas that will melt the little ones and their parents:

1. A First Book

The best companions for toddlers, some for life, plushies and puppets are always appreciated by the youngest. Whether they're adding to a collection of room comforters or becoming inseparable friends, they're sure to brighten up the holiday season!

2. Snow Suits

To commemorate the first winters of the youngest, why not offer them stylish, warm, and comfortable clothes? With wetsuits, boots, mittens, and tuques, your little ones will be ready for a winter full of snowy fun.    

Discover Deux par deux collections of girls’ snowsuits and boys’ snowsuits for a well-wrapped-up winter.

3. Early Learning Games

Looking for a stimulating Christmas gift for babies and toddlers? Pull-along modules, stacking toys, books, musical instruments... There are so many toys that can gently support babies' development.

Explore all types of colors, textures, sounds, and shapes to stimulate the different senses, adapted to the age and stage of development of the baby. For example, this sensory stacking tower. And as a bonus, any toy that can be chewed is baby-approved!

Made from organic cotton, they're breathable and gentle on your toddler's delicate skin, while still allowing plenty of freedom of movement.

8. An Enveloping Blanket

For comfort in the stroller or car seat, there's nothing like a soft blanket. 

Shaped like a teddy bear, it keeps baby warm and safe, allowing them to drift off to dreamland. The wrap-around blanket can also be used for transport in a stroller or car seat.
