Our toys are carefully selected to meet the specific needs of each age group and promote fun and sensory learning.

USE OF BOXES
1. How do I use different toys with my child?
Each kit comes with a parental guide to explain the benefits of each toy and help you stimulate your child through play.
2. What if my child is not immediately interested in toys?
Give him time to explore at his own pace. You can reintroduce the toys later in a new environment or context.
3. How long can my child play with the toys in a box?
Toys are designed to grow with your child. They can use them for several months, discovering new ways to play as they grow.
4. My child is unable to complete certain steps despite choosing an age-appropriate box. Is this serious?
Every child develops at their own pace, and milestones occur over a period of time (often a few months) rather than on a specific date. So, give your child time to achieve these milestones.
LEARNING A SECOND LANGUAGE
1. Do I need to be bilingual to use the kits?
Not at all! Our guides include ready-to-use sentences with phonetics to support your language learning.
2. Can my child mix languages? Is this a problem?
This is completely normal and temporary. It is part of the natural process of learning bilingualism.
3. How can I encourage my child to use a second language?
Incorporate language into everyday life (games, songs, routines) and be consistent in your use. Cards and toys are there to help you.
