About Ziaplayalong

As an early childhood educator, our founder spent her days nurturing curiosity, creativity, and confidence in young children. But at home, when she searched for simple, handmade, meaningful toys for her own little girl, she found herself disappointed. The shelves were filled with products that were noisy, overwhelming, or lacking intention—none of them reflected the kind of mindful, open-ended play she believed in. So she began crafting her own toys: pieces that were gentle, purposeful, and rooted in real child development principles. Toys that encouraged imagination instead of distraction. Toys that invited parents and children to slow down, explore, and play together. From those first handmade pieces, Ziaplayalong took shape—built on a vision of offering families toys that truly matter. Every product is thoughtfully designed, carefully handcrafted, and created to spark wonder in young minds. We believe in toys that tell a story, toys that grow with a child, and toys that support a deeper connection between parents and their little ones. At Ziaplayalong, our mission is simple: To help families explore more, enjoy more, and create more meaningful moments—one beautiful toy at a time. With your young kids beside you… explore much, enjoy more, and always—Playalong.Read their story
