My Honest Lovevery Play Kit Experience

I bought our first Lovevery play kit in October 2020, when my daughter was 9 months old. She is now 19 months old and we are continuing to get the play kits for her. We’ve been having so much fun with them and I am so glad that we invested the money.

When we first purchased our Lovevery 9-10 months old play kit, I was impressed by the quality however, the toys from The Explorer Play Kit, didn’t get much used by Evelyn. The Clear Tube with Stacking Rings, the Montessori Egg Cup, and the Little Grip Canister Set were Evelyn’s least favorite to play with, at that time. I know and then bring those toys out and she enjoys playing with them now. Especially during water play, she like to work with the little grip canister set and the clear tube.

By our second Play Kit, Evelyn began being interested on every toy in the kit. Lovevery toys has gotten good use by Evelyn. Watching her accomplish the activity is such a nice feeling, as a mother.

Lovevery definitely has helped me feel confident that I am giving my daughter just what she needs every step of the way, and especially as a working from home mom.

Lovevery Play Kit Quality

I remember when we got our first kit, I was honestly astonished of how high-quality the toys are.The wood is sturdy, solid, and smooth. The fabrics used are organic and soft. When I bought the first kit, I was a little skeptical, just because the prices seemed so high. But once I got my hands on the toys, I thought it was worth every penny. You just don’t see many toys of this quality.

Even the play guide was very well put together. I’m impressed by the guides because they are definitely thought-out and written well.

Product Materials

When my daughter was teething, she liked to chew everything in reach. I am very impressed that Lovevery toys are made with nontoxic paint and the products are manufactured without BPA. The fabrics are 100% organic cotton. The wood is sustainably harvested and baby-safe plastics. All this was very important to me because the last thing I wanted to give my daughter was an unsafe toy for her to play or even chew if she wanted to.

I was also extremely impressed with the company’s commitment and responsibility as a company to take care of the planet.

Lovevery is a Certified B Corporation™

It all gave me a lot of peace of mind that I’m supporting a company that’s carefully considering every single product they produce.

The older I get, the more important it is to me – especially now that we have kids and are considering what their future will be like.

Unboxing the Play Kit (The Companion Play Kit Months 22, 23, 24)

My daughter loves unboxing her play kits when we get them delivered. She gets super excited, It’s like Christmas for her every time she gets to unbox and play with the toys.

I let her do her thing with out intervening while she is exploring her new toys. She amazes me every time she knows how a certain toy is suppose to work.

I am a fan of the 1 year old’s play kits because it support your toddler’s natural curiosity with playtime that builds new skills and encourages exploration and that is exactly what it has been doing with my daughter.
