Fun, Clever, Original Toys For The Whole Family

Opened in May 2010 Le Pingouin De L’Espace (The Space Penguin) is an “Intergalactic French Webshop” proposing a range of unique toys and design toys for kids as well as kids birthday party supplies. Moulin Roty, Djeco, Corby Tindersticks, KidO NYC, Uncle Goose, Playsam, Plantoys, Miss Etoile, Nanoblock, MilaniWood…so much out there. Discover the selection of Muriel Charvet, owner of the e-store.

These 3 toys are perfect examples of what we love to propose: beautiful toys, clever, funny, original and for the whole family.

1- Eames House alphabets blocks by House Industries for Uncle Goose

This object is more than a toy, it is a design object, almost a work of art, made by hand, inspired by great designers (my favourite ones : Charles and Ray Eames). I love this kind of toys because grown-ups and kids have fun playing with them together.

And it’s never to early to appreciate beautiful things.

This toy is also made in a beautiful wood, and it is very sensual.

2- Interactive felt weather world map by Corby Tindersticks

I love the graphism of this felt map, I think it’s very clever and also funny. It’s a great way to learn geography and meteorology. You can also imagine all the travels you’ll do, one day.

3- “Poney Club” marble game by Les Jouets Libres (Made in France)

This game is made in France, in very beautiful wood, like classic games are made, but it is definitely modern by its graphism. The aim of the game makes it a perfect family game, I like this aspect.
