Pirouette blog — Dou wooden toys & products for your child's imagination

Dou’s story begins with a question…

‘How’ to spark a child’s imagination…

“Dou?” means “how?” in Japanese. The designers behind Dou wooden toys believe in the child’s unlimited imagination. They hope that these beautiful wooden toys will be a catalyst for creative play. Sparking questions in the child’s mind, such as…

How do you think about it?
How does it work?
How do you want to play?

Starting the child’s imaginative journey, believing questions are just the start of communication between children and parents. Dou’s aim is for the child to remember their toys fondly when they are grown up through the recollection of imaginative childhood memories.
