Playing with toys is the first opportunity a child has to explore and interact with the world on their own terms. To children, toys are more than just objects: they are companions, teachers, and super heroes that help guide them through a big and sometimes confusing world. They assist the physical, cognitive and emotional development that prepares children for adulthood. The Creativity Institute divides toys into four categories:
Toys for physical or muscle development such as wagons, bikes, boxes, puzzles, blocks, brooms, and shovels.
Toys for sensory (touch, sight, sound, taste, smell) development such as water toys, musical instruments, bubbles, play dough, and sand toys.
Toys for make-believe and social development such as dolls, dress-up clothes, cars, trucks, games, and books.
Toys for creative and intellectual development such as clay, crayons, paints, books, paper, and scissors. At Billie & Roo we believe the best toys are ones that engage a child’s senses, spark their imaginations, and encourage them to interact with others. We love toys!
Kaloo is the much loved French plush toy brand that has been delighting and comforting children of all ages since 1998. The quality of the products and the comfortable, tactile materials are what makes Kaloo so special.
Hugs are essential for the sensory and cognitive development of a child. Kaloo respond to this natural need for tenderness, love and comfort and inherent in all Kaloo creations is the approach to fulfilling a baby's specific needs in terms of stimulation and safety. The innovative style and attention to detail, together with the tactile materials which are meticulously selected and hand finishing of each and every piece, provides a strong sense of emotional well-being that has made Kaloo one of the foremost brands for upmarket baby gifts.
All Kaloo toys are French designed and manufactured to strict quality and safety standards, meeting both European and Australian requirements. Their toys to not only look and feel amazing but also wear well and wash easily. Over the years, Kaloo has developed an iconic collection of teddies, rabbits, dolls, animals and comforters - or doudous as the French call them, to become a symbol of outstanding quality, nurturing and comforting from birth and beyond. Kaloo are committed to children and the environment and are dedicated to developing more environmentally friendly toys whilst reducing their carbon footprint. All stuffing used in the production of every Kaloo toy is made from 100% polyester fibres obtained from recycled bottles. FSC packaging has been introduced to all new collections and ongoing from 2021, the Kaloo standard for all new packaging will be to carry the FSC certification. Additionally the beautiful boxes are designed to be reused as a special place to store small treasures.
Wanting to bring as much love, laughter and learning into the world through healthy, sustainable choices and good old-fashioned fun, Natural Living Foster (our physical store) and Billie & Roo were born. So what started off as a small kinesiology practice with a few healthy living products and a passion to protect our beautiful planet, soon became so much more. The joy we share with customers each day, whether in person or upon the opening of a new toy through the mail, is why we’re here. We hope you can be a part of our journey … we’d love to have you aboard.
