Gummi Goodness Box, Island Treats Local
Londji Sun and Moon Spinning Tops, Clover Toys Local
Topped with sweet folk art illustrations by the detail-oriented folks at Barcelona-based Londji, these charming wooden toys will quickly become part of your daily rotation (all puns intended).
Gem Makeup Face Stickers, Super Smalls

Leopard print has seen a serious resurgence among the younger crowd (my five-year-old niece has repeatedly informed me that the difference between cheetah and leopard print is not a trivial one, but both are acceptable). Give the Cheetah Girls revivalists what they crave with sparkly face stickers from Super Smalls, which actually consults little ones in the design process.
Bird Whistle, Fruitsuper Local
One thing we're definitely not nostalgic for is a time when children were to be seen and not heard. These cute, candy-apple-red whistles, handmade by local artist Brian Beck "in his magical, secret cabin," demand and deserve attention of the visual and auditory varieties.
Plus-Plus Basic 70-Piece Building Block Tube, Clover Toys Local
Candylab Woodie Car, Flora and Henri Local
The dream of keeping toys separate from the more refined areas of the house is always short-lived. Welcome the playroom creep with this classic walnut veneer–paneled station wagon (yeah, that's actual walnut). Surfboard absolutely included.
