I always love a good
story, and David's and Adrienne's is just that. With a newborn and a layoff on their hands simultaneously, the couple behind
Manzanita Kids searched their souls and creative talents for a way to make a living from home, and thus their toy company was born. Lines of Montessori and Waldorf-inspired developmental puzzles and blocks, as well as wonderfully imaginative modular building sets, were lovingly conceived to "nurture creative play." Offerings are all hand-cut in natural materials and many feature their own homemade beeswax/organic safflower oil finish, for a toy line that is as eco-friendly as it is pure fun.

Surely inspired by the iconic Robert Indiana sculpture, the
Love Puzzle spreads a positive message to the littlest hearts.

From their baby line, these
Moon Rattles are finished with their homemade beeswax/organic safflower oil, safe for teething mouths and tiny hands.

Several different
Animal Puzzle creature combinations are available, including this adorable Bear, Shark & Parrot trio.

The
Elephant Seesaw is a simple yet engaging way to sharpen a toddler's understanding of balance and motion.

Modular Building Sets handmade by Manzanita Kids, affording hours of versatile, imaginative play.
