Maukilo Giveaway

Whether purchasing a set of wooden building blocks, a hand-knit doll, arts and crafts supplies, or a game with multiple play styles, customers have come to depend on Maukilo as a place to find expertly made, heirloom-quality toys. These toys are not only well made, but they’re also made to exceed safety standards. Wooden toys sold at Maukilo.com are finished with non-toxic, natural lacquers; and plastic toys are made from child-safe, PVC-free materials. Maukilo’s 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.

Maukilo.com is owned by HABA, a 70-year-old German toy company, and shares a warehouse with HABA in upstate New York. Because of this partnership, Maukilo.com is able to offer more than 1,500 HABA items, the widest selection of HABA products in the United States. Maukilo rounds out its assortment with other wonderful brands, all of which meet the company’s motto: “Buy once. Play forever.”

We received the adorable Cuddling Town Fabric Blocks and they are perfect baby gifts! I have t say that for once a toy that isn’t plastic and takes batteries! The set comes with 6 fabric building blocks with visual and acoustic elements: chirping worm, magnetic flap, touching net, mirror foil, effect foil, crackling blossom. Any baby or toddler will loves these. I love that any baby can play with them and wont get hurt with them. drop it on your head. It wont hurt!

Maukilo.com got its start in 2000 when a German-born woman, Alexandra Goedrich, couldn’t find any of the toys, that she herself grew up playing with, for sale in the United States. So, she began an ecommerce site specializing in the sale of European toys. The business quickly outgrew the small California apartment it started in, as Americans discovered (and in some cases, rediscovered) brands including Sigikid and HABA. Now, Maukilo offers a wide selection of wooden and PVC-free plastic toys and games from more than 40 European- and American-based companies.
