In The Garden with Little Dutch
When the sun finally makes an appearance, there’s nothing quite like watching little ones discover the magic of the outdoors. As a team made up of parents, we’ve seen first-hand how much children thrive outside - whether they’re digging in the garden, splashing in water, or simply following their curiosity wherever it leads.
That’s exactly why we’ve put so much care into curating our outdoor play and garden toy collection at Scandibørn this season. Every piece has been chosen with real families in mind, combining beautiful design with meaningful, imaginative play. These are items we genuinely love and feel excited about, and we truly hope they bring just as many happy, memory-filled moments to your home as they have to ours.
Earlier this year, our team travelled to Germany for the renowned Spielwarenmesse trade show, where we had the pleasure of seeing so many of our favourite brands up close. As the UK’s leading retailer for Little Dutch, it was incredibly special to spend time with their team and explore their beautifully styled stand, showcasing their newest summer collections.
From the moment we saw the latest garden and outdoor play pieces, the whole team completely fell in love with them. The soft pastel palettes, thoughtful details, and timeless designs stood out immediately. As parents ourselves, range building always feels very personal, we’re not just thinking about products, but about real children, real play, and real family moments. That’s what makes discovering collections like this so special for us.
It’s one of those ranges we’ve been excited about ever since that trip - and if previous seasons are anything to go by, we already know these pieces are going to be incredibly sought-after this year.
Among the standout pieces this season, the Little Dutch wooden playhouse truly captures the magic of outdoor play. With its soft colour palette and charming design, it creates a special little world where imaginations can run free. Whether it’s hosting garden tea parties, playing house, or simply enjoying a quiet moment outdoors, it’s a piece that quickly becomes part of everyday childhood memories.
The Little Dutch wooden mud kitchen is another favourite we couldn’t wait to share. Perfect for wonderfully messy, sensory play, it invites little ones to mix, pour, scoop and experiment using whatever treasures they find outside. With its thoughtful details and sturdy wooden design, it encourages open-ended play while blending beautifully into any garden setting.
We’re also so excited about the new Little Dutch scooters & matching helmets coming this summer in pink, green, white floral, and blue. If you loved the trike, you’ll absolutely adore these. They’re designed to support balance and independence while still keeping that signature Little Dutch aesthetic we all love. Perfect for little adventures, they’re ideal for everything from gentle rides around the garden to bigger outdoor explorations.
For creative garden play, the 10 piece garden sets - available in both the Fairy Garden and Forest Friends designs, are just lovely. They’re perfect for little gardeners in the making, encouraging children to get hands on with nature through digging, planting, and watering. Paired with the beautifully made wheelbarrows in blue and pink, they make outdoor play feel even more immersive and “grown-up”.
And it’s the smaller details that really complete the collection. The insect jars and binoculars are perfect for curious little explorers, helping children discover the tiniest wonders of the garden up close. Whether they’re spotting bugs, observing nature, or heading off on a mini adventure, these pieces add an extra layer of discovery to outdoor play.
Together, these pieces bring outdoor play to life in such a thoughtful, beautiful way - encouraging creativity, exploration, and those simple, joy-filled moments that make childhood so special.
