We believe all children deserve to play with toys that are good for them, their community, and the earth.
good for you
We handpick our selection of toys and books to encourage your child to explore the wonder of childhood. We curate open-ended toys to empower your child’s exploration and development
good for your community
We curate the highest-quality secondhand goods while keeping accessibility in mind. We stock products that can benefit all families in our communities.
good for the earth
We’re kind to our planet by sourcing locally-made and ethical brands that embody our values. We contribute to a circular economy by helping preloved goods find new homes!
our brands
Each brand we stock is carefully curated with your family, community, and the earth in mind. We select brands that prioritize sustainability, high-quality materials, and ethical production practices so you can feel good about playtime.
why we love consignment
We believe every family deserves to have access to high-quality, open-ended toy options. While we love classic toy brands like Grimm’s, Grapat, and Holztiger, we understand that they may not be accessible to every family. It may feel impossible to find a quality Grimm’s rainbow or discontinued Raduga Grez set secondhand, and we want to help! Wonder + Kind makes it easy by offering consignment so families can sell back their quality, open-ended toys and pass on their magic to another playroom.
meet claire
Wonder + Kind is an Ottawa-based online shop founded by Claire, a passionate mom and lover of play. Claire started Wonder + Kind after struggling to match her desire to shop locally with her inability to find sustainable yet high-quality toys for her child in her community. Claire also recognized that these sustainable options often come with a higher price tag, which may not be accessible to all families. She combined her passion for play with her desire to be kind to our environment and community to create Wonder + Kind.
