Noodlehead
Noodlehead is a Canadian small business making handmade baby toys, sensory items, and soft goods for infants. A Canadian-made alternative to Fisher-Price, Lamaze, and similar mass-produced infant toy brands.
Why Switch?
Fisher-Price is owned by Mattel (El Segundo, California) and Lamaze is an American brand — both are mass-produced overseas with no Canadian connection. Noodlehead is a Canadian handmade business producing sensory toys and soft goods for babies, made with careful material selection and crafted in small batches. Handmade Canadian baby toys make meaningful gifts and support a real Canadian maker rather than a toy corporation. For parents who care about what goes into their infant's hands, handmade and Canadian is a genuine advantage.
Parents and gift-givers who want handmade, Canadian-crafted sensory toys for babies and infants — as a thoughtful alternative to mass-produced plastic toys.
