Nini Amici Wooden Toy Set lets you make your own animals

Nini Amici Toy Details

Wooden toys are way better than the plastic ones that are widely available. Design-wise, such wooden toy sets are more visually appealing with their classic look and feel.

The fact that wooden toys are sustainable and environmentally safe is a plus. They are more durable and are also safer for children. They say wooden toys are best for your child but remember that not all toys are made equal. Quality toys are hard to come by, so the search for them won’t be over until you no longer have a young kid at home.

Nini Amici Toys

NINI AMICI is a new set of small toys made of elmwood. There are only ten pieces, but the toy set is modular, so you can make more toys. It uses a magnetic connector system to attach different parts to make different animals.

Three base bodies can work as the tail, head, or hump. Kids can make most of the known animals, but you can also create new ones depending on the children’s imaginative play. You can call the pieces that connect with magnets as NINIs.

What’s more remarkable about the NINIs are the people who make them. The toys are made in Upper Franconia, Germany in a workshop for people with mental and physical disabilities. They are fairly produced and special because of the special people who make them.

The wooden toy set is ideal for people ages three and above. Even the adults will find joy in creating and playing with the NINIs. Make sure kids under 36 months don’t play with them as there are small parts that can be swallowed. The wooden parts have magnets, so you should also keep them away from people who wear defibrillators or pacemakers.

These wooden toys are very appealing with a minimalist aesthetic. We can consider them as user-configurable as it is up to the kids what animals they want to make. Looking at the suggestions in the booklet, we can see you can make a cat, a dinosaur, an alpaca, a goat, a camel, a dog, a giraffe, an elephant, and a goat.

MIKU Kids Phone Concept strips the phone down to basic functions

MIKU Kids Phone

Keep kids away from gadgets as much as possible. That is what many people are saying, but as a parent, I can say some devices are very much helpful. Of course, gadget time must be controlled and parents should ensure the privacy and security of their children. There are plenty of ways to keep kids safe like choosing apps that protect and using smart gadgets–all while keeping them entertained.

There is now a trend to reduce features and functions to just the basics. This is so people won’t be distracted or make things easy for them. The Miku Kids Phone is an ideal solution for families who always want to be connected, giving the parents peace of mind.

MIKU Kids Phone Product Concept

The phone for kids introduces young children to digital communication. It doesn’t have a screen but can keep the kids reachable whenever they are not with you. It comes with AI (artificial intelligence) so the phone can grow with the children. It allows new voice-based features to be unlocked as the kids grow.

MIKU Kids Phone Where to Buy

The Miku is programmable so the whole family can enjoy connecting. You can probably liken it to a walkie-talkie for the kids, but it is smarter with AI this time. The kids phone is available in different colors and looks like a bowling pin with animal ears. It can be a bear (red), elephant (blue), dog (green), or a cat (yellow). On one ear is a handle that looks like a carabiner so you can hang the phone anywhere. The eyes serve as the ear speakers, and the smiling mouth could be the mic.

MIKU Kids Phone for the Children

There are three buttons on the body: a circle, a triangle, and a square. You can set the buttons to quickly call whoever in the family—Mommy, Daddy, or Grandparents. We see a USB port and a toggle switch underneath the Miku Kids Phone. The size of the kiddie phone is just right to fit a child’s hand.

MIKU Kids Phone Details

We have seen similar kids’ phones before, like the Novus 3-in-1 Modular Phone and the Relay Smartphone. We’re fans of gadgets for children having little kids of our own. As a parent, I prefer devices and tools that are simple to use and navigate. Less screen time is challenging to achieve, but parents should be more conscious about their kids’ habits. This Miku Phone will be helpful as it only offers the basics.
