About Janod: Janod is a French brand specializing in the manufacture/creation of traditional toys and games from wood and cardboard. It has stood the test of time by adapting to the needs of children discovering its toys for the first time, and the memories of their parents who have grown up with them. Janod not only creates beautifully designed toys, we also promote learning through play. Our toys are traditional in concept but “contemporary European” in design and all our products are made with a distinct focus on craftsmanship and quality. We place a strong focus on child development - physical, social, creative and imaginative play are integral to all our products. We test for ages 18 months and 3 years +. Why Is Imaginative Play Important?  Young children learn by imagining and acting out what they imagine. Studies have shown that open-ended pretend play helps build social and emotional skills, language skills, critical thinking and problem solving, and much, much more. Systematic research is increasingly demonstrating the critical need for pretend play to stimulate cognitive development in children of all ages.
