It’s that time of year where lots of wonderful little gifts are vying for your attention as you come to terms with the fact Christmas is fast approaching. It’s hard to know where to start, how to keep track, what to budget and where to store them. We get it, we’re all in the same feeling festive-but-a-little-overwhelmed boat! So, as always, we’re here to help, armed with our jolly shelves of good stuff and insider knowledge of which company’s elves make the best things.

One of our favourite places to receive a huge box from is the wonderful Djeco catalogue. Started in mid-century France, this family-ran business holds tight its dream of creating toys that aren’t on the market, designed with artistry that promotes drawing, design, and aesthetics. We love them, you love them and your small people will too.

With that in mind, we thought it would be helpful to compile a little list of our top 5 Djeco gift ideas this Winter. All of them have a few options of style or interests to make sure you can find the perfect fit for your lucky recipient. Let’s get started!
