Djeco

This is a story like from a movie - about a certain elegant French lady, a roguishly smiling disheveled boy and a small green gecko.

It all begins when the lady in question, Véronique Michel-Dalès, sets up a small company to produce educational games for children. It's 1954 and not many women are yet taking on such challenges, but Véronique is doing brilliantly. Already in the 1960s, her toys win several important awards, the Toy Oscars. Some time later, her son Frédéric is born and the company with the gecko in the title goes under. But the disheveled little boy grows and turns into a young man with artistic talent and a bold vision to resurrect his mother's pioneering venture. He embarks on a trip around the world to see for himself what toys are making waves in its various corners. And then she returns to an office set up in an old warehouse and begins to design one that is different from all others. He starts with a few toys and puzzles made of wood and cardboard.

Today Djeco is so much more. The company already has more than a thousand toys of all kinds, and every day a team of designers, graphic designers, illustrators, constructors and other specialists creates new products maintained in Djeco's characteristic style. Colors, patterns, slides, funny animals, swirling flowered stems as if drawn by someone who just has to try out all his new crayons. But Djeco's offer also lovers of minimalism can find something for themselves.

Beautiful and superbly crafted musical instruments, an extensive range of art kits, face paints, tattoos, stickers, perfectly suitable for gifts designed for different age groups games and puzzles, sets for every occasion for lovers of role-playing. Wealth.

"Quality and aesthetics are key for us, but we do not lose sight of the practical aspects of creating and using our products. We want to awaken children's curiosity, enrich their imagination and provoke them to make discoveries," the brand's owners write.

The company's toys are available in more than 60 countries around the world, and not just in typical toy stores. Djeco can also be purchased at the Louvre in Paris and MoMA in New York, among others. Djeco's wonderful toys are some of our most beloved at Kidealo.
