    [Smooth Wooden Car]

    I chose this as a gift for my child when he was 6 months old. At first, he picked it up and played with it by licking and chewing on the tires. It's a safe shape, so I felt safe putting it in my mouth.

    Even now that he is two and a half years old, he still enjoys running around the house and playing with it. It is sturdy and can be played with for a long time. It is just the right size, easy to hold, and very cute. It feels very nice to the touch. It makes a great gift.

    [Animal Square Boxed]

    I wondered how they would play with it? Maybe just lick it? Then they started stacking them up! Then they tore them down and seemed to enjoy the sound of the animals bumping into each other!

    I thought it was attractive that when they grow up they can play pretend games and do various other things. I'm looking forward to it being given to me as a parent when my child no longer needs it and used as cute interior decoration.

    [Xylophone] Kobe store sales items

    I bought this for my son's 1st birthday! I often go to the indoor play area at the Kobe store and I was really interested in the xylophone.

    He looks so happy making the sound himself! Even if he hits it hard, it doesn't make an unpleasant sound, and the beautiful sound is soothing. My son was born in April during the cherry blossom season and his name contains the kanji character hinoki, which means hinoki, so the xylophone has the name of two trees, which makes it feel really special!

    [Monogatari Theaters]

    A 1-year-old and a 2-year-old are playing. My one-year-old sister just plays with the wooden blocks, making a clicking sound, but she finds the pleasant sound of the wood soothing. My two-year-old brother loves picture books, so when I do a puppet show based on a story from a picture book, his eyes sparkle as he listens.

    He also loves building blocks, so he enjoys stacking them and playing with them. The size is just right, and I appreciate that it comes with storage space so it can be stored compactly. I'd like to play with a variety of stories, so I'd be happy if additional story building blocks are sold separately in the future.

    Order [Rabbit Cutting Board]

    Thank you for making the rabbit cutting board. The rabbit's expression is so cute. I like it.

    I'm happy that my family has grown. What makes me especially happy is that cleaning the kitchen has become even more fun. I hope to continue living happily with my rabbit and bear.

    [Let's play Koroli]

    I received this as a baby gift. I am very happy to be able to provide my child with such a wonderful wooden toy, which places the warmth of wood and safety first and foremost in its value.

    <This is a photo of my baby when he was 5 months old. From the moment I put "Play with Koroli" in front of him, his eyes sparkled, he moved it with his hands, showed interest in the rattling sound, and played with it happily. It is still one of his favorite toys. I will continue to use it with care. Thank you very much.

    [Rolling Animals]

    You'll be excited to see the animals as soon as you open the box! It is a product that children can play with safely, so even though I know it is made from precious wood, I let them play with it as they like.

    He uses it as a teething ring, licks it when he's hungry, and sometimes throws it at me in a tantrum...(TT) The smell of the wood is also wonderful, and I often enjoy sniffing it. My family and I have decided that once we have lots of fun and make lots of memories, we'll put it up with our photos☆

    [Rolling Animals]

    A present for my son who will be 6 months old in October 🎁 He is having fun chasing the rolling toy with his eyes! He wants to touch it! He wants to lick it! He has such strong feelings that he is always touching something while looking at it 🙂

    It's safe to touch (it's made of wood, but it's not prickly), and even if he licks it, it's safe because it's made of a material 🙂 I feel like his desire to touch it is also a step forward in training him! It was expensive and I hesitated, but it was the first proper toy I've ever received as a gift, so I'm glad I bought it! It's also attractive that it's a toy that can be used for a long time 🙂

    [Gachapon play]

    My son is now 5 months old and has started putting everything in his mouth, so I was looking around for toys that are safe for him to lick and finally found Nakayoshi Library. The fact that they are used by the Imperial Family and the fact that their website shows that they have a very serious attitude towards craftsmanship were the deciding factors for me to buy one.

    Ever since the gachapon toy arrived, my son has been licking and chewing it every day with gusto, and it has become his favorite toy. The gentle scent and feel of the wood, the handles that are easy for a baby's small hands to grasp, the different colored rings, and the cute clanging sound... For me, this has become my child's favorite toy! When my mother saw how we were, she gave us a ``baby set'' as a gift, and we are currently waiting for it to arrive. I'm really looking forward to all of the toys as they are suitable for babies and families to play with together. I'm really glad I was able to find Nakayoshi Library's fun toys that are safe and secure and have the warmth of nature. Thank you for your continued support!

    [Chest] Custom-made (remade)

    Yes, to my brother
    Thank you for making the chest of drawers bigger.
    When I sniffed it, it smelled good.
    I will treasure it.

    Ha-chan is praying that you get better soon.
    Let's play again.
    From Ha-chan.

    It just arrived. Thank you for making such a wonderful chest of drawers. I really like the two-tone color scheme, it's cuter than I expected. Thank you to everyone who made it.

    Ojabakosan

    I bought this to celebrate my grandson's first birthday. At first, he was 10 months old and was not yet able to put the ball in and drop it, so an adult showed him, "This is where you put the ball," and showed him how to put it in. He put the ball in and made a rattling noise, and looked curious as it rolled out of the door below, then picked up the ball in both hands and clattered it together, looking very happy.

    He turned one last month, and now he can put the ball in and open the bottom door to retrieve the ball that rolls out. He plays with it over and over again. Even though it's only for a short time, I can feel her growing through playing. I keep the tidying up area within reach, so she always has it close by and plays with it. It feels very pleasant to the touch even for adults, and the warmth of the wood and its gentle sound are soothing.

    Tables and chairs

    At Haguchiru Land Mizumoto, one of the themes is "wood education." The flooring is made of natural cedar wood, giving the garden a warm atmosphere. While searching for tables and chairs with a similar warmth, we found Nakayoshi Library on the internet.

    They are well made, have a nice texture, and fit perfectly with the atmosphere of the nursery, so we purchased two tables and six chairs. We would definitely like to use your services again when we open our second nursery.

    Custom Bookshelves

    Thank you very much for the custom bookshelf (photo on the right) this time. I wanted to place the new bookshelf next to the one I ordered about two years ago (photo on the left), so I asked for the bottom half to be the same size as the last one.

    When I lined them up, I found that not only was the position of the fixed shelves perfect, but even the height of the adjustable shelves was perfect ! Comparing the colors, I could see that the previous bookshelf had aged and taken on a more tasteful color. My kids love this bookshelf. Even kids can tell if something is of good quality. I, too, am soothed by the smooth feel and the smell of cypress. It will be used and treasured in our living room for a long time. The cypress chest that I also ordered this time was beautiful in both appearance and construction, and although I purchased it for my older child, I am already wanting to purchase one for my younger child as well. I would like to order from you again someday.

    Custom Storage Boxes

    I bought a round cypress table. The entire surface of the table is smooth and feels great. Every time I use it, I can smell the cypress, which soothes my soul.

    I chose a table with a diameter of 90cm and a height of 33cm. It seems that it is still a little high for my 4-year-old daughter to sit on the floor and work on, but it is something that can be used for a long time, so I would like to use it carefully. It is very spacious and great for playing with children. I am very happy with this wonderful table! Thank you very much.

    Baby Set

    I received this as a baby gift. They say you can start playing with it from around 10 months old, and since my baby is 7 months old now, he licks it, touches it, and looks at it curiously.

    But it's cute just to display it in the room, and it's smooth and pleasant to touch. I saw the Nakayoshi Library website and liked the cute design and the fact that it's safe to lick, so I bought other products as well. I can't wait for the day when my child will play with it.

    Baby Set

    I received this from my mother-in-law. I had seen Nakayoshi Library on TV before and knew about it! I had been interested in the company because it is a purveyor to the Imperial Family, so I was very happy to receive it as a gift!

    This toy has a really warm wooden feel to it, and more than anything, it's so reassuring for my child at the age where he wants to put everything in his mouth! He's been playing with it every day since we got it!!! I'd also like to consider other products.

    Baby Building Blocks Special

    I gave my grandson a set of baby building blocks to celebrate his 7th month. I chose them because they were the perfect size for a baby's hands and because they were made of natural wood. I also printed his name on them, and they were so cute that my daughter was thrilled! She said that as soon as she opened them, she could smell the wonderful scent of wood.

    My grandson seems to be playing with it using all five senses, licking and biting it, and since it is made of a material that is safe to put in your mouth, I can let him play with it without worry. I'm looking forward to him playing with it in various ways in the future. I'd like to buy more toys here as he grows!

    Movable shelves, picture book shelves,
    Wagons and other items can be ordered

    I ordered a movable shelf, a picture book shelf, and a wagon as the base. I also ordered a small table last time, and received a changeable chair through a hometown tax donation, so the entire room is covered with Nakayoshi Library furniture, and it's a dream space for children.

    My friends come over to play so much that there's no room to walk, but even when it's messy, they don't feel stressed because of the warmth of the wood. There's no clicking noise that plastic makes, so it's really comfortable.
    Even in the limited space of a small apartment, custom orders are essential if you want the best possible product. Increasing the number of shelves, lengthening or shortening the width by a few centimeters to fit the room. It may seem like a small request, but I was grateful that they were willing to accommodate my request to make it fit perfectly in my home.
    In my house, we don't let the children put away their toys (except for those they've used on the desk), so it's more fun for the parents to tidy up and think, "Ah, so that's what they played with today."

    Animal blocks and changeable chairs

    I received the animal building blocks as a gift when my daughter was born and the transforming chair as a gift for her first birthday. Both are used almost every day in our home.
    Now that he is one and a half years old, he can understand the names of most animals and is gradually starting to say the names of animals.

    He has more favorite animals and is beginning to develop feelings of love and affection, and I enjoy watching him change the way he plays with and uses the chair as he gets older and older. The transforming chair is put to great use around the house every day from morning until night. As a chair to watch TV. As a desk to draw. We take it to the kitchen and use it as a countertop when he helps out. It's also nice to see him behave like a good boy when we let his favorite stuffed animal sit on the chair.
    Both products have a warm wooden feel, and the careful handiwork of the craftsmen makes my heart warm. Above all, I can trust that they put safety for children first, so I can purchase and use them with peace of mind.

    [Order a shelf for a playhouse set]

    I ordered a drawing table for my 2-year-old son, based on the shelf in the "Pretend Play Set and Shelf" product .

    They made it to a size that would fit a chair we already had at home, and it fit perfectly, like it was part of a set . I also ordered it to be a size that would fit next to the toy shelf, and it was the perfect size. I had originally intended it to be used as a drawing table, but it's the perfect size for eating meals , so I eat at this table every day! Since it arrived, when I come home to the wonderful smell of wood, it's very soothing. They've achieved something that's hard to achieve with ready-made products, and it's simple and sturdy, so I think it will last a long time. Thank you for making it!

    I bought this for my child's first festival. Since it is a wooden carp streamer, my child is happy because he can touch it as much as he wants.

    It can also be used as building blocks, so I'm looking forward to asking my child to decorate it when he grows up. Also, it was the perfect size for us since we are renting and have limited space. Thank you very much.

    [Telephone box]

    I bought the phone box as a birthday present for my 2-year-old. The flower table and changeable chair that I bought when he was 1 year old are also in good use.
    First, he puts all the coins in, then picks up the receiver and plays around, pretending to be answering the phone while saying "Hey, Grandpa" to his grandfather who is working away from home.

    Sometimes I use the coins as materials for playing house. They have a nice woody smell and are very pleasant to play with.

    I hadn't been able to find a suitable May doll for a long time, but then I came across the one I was looking for and purchased it. I was very nervous because I hadn't seen the actual item, but the delivery was also very careful, so I was able to receive it with peace of mind.

    When you open it, you can smell the wood and it is very soothing. It is a May doll that I look forward to decorating with my children every year. Even when my children grow up, I can decorate it every year and remember their growth. I will decorate it every year from now on.

    I chose this as a birthday present for my 1-year-old son. He seemed to like it when I gave it to him, and now he smiles every time he sees Robot-kun.

    When I play with it in front of him, he tries to imitate me by pushing his head or twisting the screws in his stomach. He's not very good at it yet, so he mostly just pulls on his ears, but I'm looking forward to seeing him grow up and be able to play with all kinds of mechanisms.

    [Rolling Animals]

    My son received this when he was 7 months old. First of all , the animals are so cute, like they've jumped out of a picture book. He can play with just the animals. The pale colors are beautiful and lovely.

    It's so cute that I find myself rolling it around and naturally saying things like, "Good luck, turtle!" and "You're fast, rabbit!" It's also fun that there are circles that roll slowly and star shapes that look interesting as they spin. My son loves the circle shape and holds it tightly the whole time. When he was 7 months old, I would just show him the toy, but he would concentrate and follow it with his eyes. When he's fussy, showing it to him often stops him crying! He's now 9 months old and is trying to place the animals on the rails by himself, as in the picture. It's nice to see his growth, and I hope to continue to cherish it and play with it for a long time.

    [Baby Set]

    My mother gave it to me as a baby shower gift. He doesn't react when he's born, but I heard that playing the sound of wood is good for him, so I often played the sound of wood next to him. He started to show interest after about two months,

    Now that he is 4 months old, he plays with the toy in various ways, such as shaking it to make a sound, hitting it against the hanging cloth toy, and licking it. It seems to feel good to lick, so he keeps licking it. He seems to like the sound, as he looks at the toy curiously and shakes it around. I'm looking forward to seeing how he will play with it in different ways when he grows up.

    We received this as a birth gift from all the students in the university lab. Although he is only four months old, he is already very curious, picking up the building blocks and peering into the box.

    Not only is the design cute, but the smooth texture and durability of the product show that it is a product that has been carefully crafted.

    My daughter, who just turned one, is so fascinated with the toys that she sticks both hands into the box (laughs). Sometimes she puts the toys in her mouth, but I can watch over her without worry, knowing that safe materials and paints have been used.

    I bought this as a gift for my daughter who will soon be one year old. She still likes to put everything in her mouth to check things out, so as a parent I can rest assured that this toy is made of safe materials and has a warm wooden feel to it, so I can let her play with it without worry.

    Parents can show their children how to play and roll the toys together, and it feels like they are sharing a fun time through the toys. The color of the wood, the various shapes, and the animal motifs are cute and fit in with the room. I would like to buy other toys for my child if I have the opportunity.

    [Monogatari Theaters]

    I am the mother of a 5-year-old daughter and a 3-year-old son who love playing house. At one point, my daughter wanted a dollhouse, but this puppet show would allow siblings to expand on the story together, and we fell in love at first sight.

    My mother's intuition was right. The stories of once-in-a-lifetime encounters that the children tell every day are amazing. With sound effects added to picture books that make sounds, and props made from origami paper, the world expands day by day. I think it's a wonderful toy that will help accumulate family memories.

    This was a gift I received as part of a hometown tax donation to Kami City, Kochi Prefecture. I thought it was a little late for my 3-year-old daughter, but I wanted her to experience natural materials, so I decided to buy it.

    I'm glad I bought it because I can see how he plays with it in creative ways, such as lining up various animals to make up stories, or lining them up in a box to play paper sumo. It's a toy that I hope he will use for a long time. Thank you very much.

    First birthdays are special, so I requested this product from my parents! Since the day it arrived, my son has been curious about it and has been playing with it, touching it, grabbing it, biting and licking it! You can print his name on it, which makes it feel special. I named it with a sense of familiarity, because I want it to become my son's friend from now on! I hope you play a lot and grow up (⁎˃ᴗ˂⁎)

    [Baby Building Blocks Special]

    [Stacked chairs]

    I purchased the bookshelf in the photo for my child, who just turned 1 year and 3 months old, and it arrived in early November! I think children identify books by the pattern and color of the cover, so I chose this bookshelf because the covers are visible when the books are stored, and because I already have a lot of books, they can be stacked for storage.

    My child is just over 70cm tall, so he often reaches for books below the first shelf from the bottom where the covers are visible. I have an English book with a sound button on the second shelf from the bottom, and he plays with that book by pressing the button (he can't take it out).
    Before the bookshelf arrived, I had selected a few books and put them up on a toy shelf in the tatami-covered play area in the middle of the living room, but most of the time the books were either knocked over or lying around.
    The bookshelf that arrived can hold a lot of books, so it's great to place the books on a shelf where the covers are visible and they won't fall over.
    However, I didn't take this into account because the only thing you can see on the cover of the Nontan series books that my child likes is the word "Nontan" at the top. Since you can't see the cover design, it seems like he doesn't pick up many Nontan books... I wish the bottom shelf was the same height as the Nontan baby books, but I do n't think he'll read such small books in the future, so it's a problem if he's going to use it for a long time.
    We placed the bookshelf we purchased against the wall in the living room, but because it is far from the play area in the middle of the room, our child either reads books on the floor or takes them out to read. While I would really like to place the bookshelf closer to the play area, we don't currently have the space to do so, so I am thinking of teaching him to carry books from the bookshelf to the play area to read.
    The bottom shelf, where books are placed with the spine facing forward, is where I store books and stuffed toys. When I used to store books on the toy shelf, I stopped putting book stands in it because my child would swing them around and was worried that the thin metal would hurt him, so I reduced the number of books I put up, but now I use stuffed toys instead of book stands. The bottom shelf would be perfect if it had a movable book stand (but it would probably be expensive...).
    I think I'll find the best way to use it as I go!

    It grows from a transforming chair to a chair for big sister. It can be a bus, a base, a bath, a horse jumping, a jump platform, a dollhouse. And it can also be a standard shop. The chair will continue to transform today and tomorrow.


    This chair makes me feel like my child will never be able to enjoy playing with it so much on any other chair. I will take good care of it. Thank you.

    [Custom-made furniture]

    Thank you for your help. I was so engrossed in the assembly that I forgot to take pictures. It was as if it had been built in from the beginning, and the people who were assembling it were amazed at how perfectly it fit.

    The playground is by the window, and the sun shines in well, so I'm looking forward to seeing the natural changes of the sun and the sun tanning. Because there are no bumps, the children don't get caught in it, and they said, "It smells like wood," and they were about to rub their noses against it. Today, I heard them discussing where to put which toys.
    The photo was taken in the evening, and the sunlight is in it, but I've attached it. Thank you.

    Thank you for the storage shelves. They are much neater than before, and best of all, the inorganic feel of the polypropylene has been replaced with the warmth of wood, which makes me very happy.

    (I regret that I didn't make the top shelf and the additional shelf movable as suggested, as it would have been easier to use even when the clothes on the hangers were grown to adult sizes.)

    [A walk on a rainy day]

    My kids love playing outside and were having fun finding tadpoles in the rice field next to our house. Then I found this book, "A Walk on a Rainy Day," and thought it was perfect for our home, so I bought it.

    I was attracted to the natural wood color. It was very difficult to stack the tadpoles when they were at the bottom. I want to treasure them and use them for many years to come.

    [Animal building blocks]

    I bought this as a birthday present for my one-year-old grandson. Before he opened the box, he must have thought it was food😍 He put it in his mouth and made a disgusting face lol

    He doesn't yet recognize animals, but when I praise him for taking things out and putting them back in the hole and tidying up, he happily repeats it over and over again. Soon he'll start pushing the box and crawling... Soon he'll be able to understand his favorite 🐶🐘 shape 🎵

    [A chest that can hold a lot of clothes]

    I bought this for my 3-year-old child. When I opened the package, the nice scent of hinoki spread through the room and made me feel refreshed. My child also liked the nice smell.

    The height is easy for my son, who will soon be 1m tall, to use, and the drawers are smooth and easy to open and close, so he has no problem choosing and taking out clothes by himself every day. The storage space at the top is convenient, and I put things that I use often or want to prepare quickly there. I was able to hang commercially available hooks on the side, so I also had a place to put my backpack when we went out. I wish the drawers other than the bottom one were a little taller so that he could use it even after he grows up, but the construction is careful and the wood grain is beautiful, so I would consider buying one for my younger child as well.

    [Animal building blocks]

    I received animal building blocks as a birth gift. When my daughter was just born, I treasured them and displayed them, but when she was able to sit up by herself, she started playing with them more and more, and now that she's good at crawling, she plays with the animals in the box almost every day.

    When I stack the animals, she comes over to me vigorously, and when she knocks them down, she smiles happily. She also likes to play with the blocks, holding them in both hands and making a clicking sound. The round, gentle shape of the blocks fits perfectly in a child's hands, so parents can watch over them with peace of mind. The size of the box is also perfect, and since I think she will be able to tidy up by herself in the future, the corners are rounded and the size is just right for a child to hold, so it is well thought out. These wonderful animal building blocks are overflowing with the careful handiwork of craftsmen and the warmth of wood. I think the animals will be watching over my daughter as she grows up. And I will treasure them so that they can be used by my grandchildren someday. That is my little dream.

    [Clothing and backpack storage shelves]
    [Study desk wagon]
    Made to order size

    I had it made for my three sisters who are all close in age, and the size was perfect, so the children were thrilled to have their own shelves! The shelves are also adjustable, with three levels, so my older sister, who is in elementary school, can store all of her belongings there.

    When I ordered, I was worried that the depth would be too deep, but the school bag fits in just right, and even though it is deep, if you ensure a certain level of height, you can see all the way to the back, and you can separate items that are used frequently, such as handkerchiefs and school lunch supplies, from items that are used less frequently, so it ended up being very easy to use. Of the three units, only one had no dowels, and when my eldest daughter contacted you, asking why only her younger sisters had so many shelves, you delivered the dowels on the same day, which was very helpful. Thank you for such a great product. I love the colors and feel of Nakayoshi's products , so I would definitely use them again. It was a shame that the top drawer of the cart that we ordered at the same time was a little difficult to open even for adults, and children said they couldn't open it. The depth size that we had changed fit perfectly under the desk, so I'm glad we changed it! It was my mistake that the bottom drawer didn't fit A4 because I didn't check the size properly, so next time I'll ask you to order a size that fits A4. We look forward to seeing you again.

    Hello. The table just arrived! My son was immediately delighted, saying, "It's a desk! There's a small one at the nursery school too."

    For the time being, I think I'll use the smaller one as my main storage space and the larger one as a storage space for building blocks. Thank you.

    [Transformable chair]

    I bought this when my baby was 10 months old. It has a nice cypress scent and every surface feels great to the touch. There are no screws or nails, so it's safe.

    I felt that this was a product that was surely made with a lot of thought. Now that he can sit up, he holds onto the handrail firmly, which I think will improve his posture. Even when he's not sitting, he plays puppet shows on a small stage like in the picture. You never know how long you'll use children's furniture, but this chair has many uses, so I'm glad it can be used for a long time. Above all, it's a wonderful chair full of kindness that makes you want to keep it in your home forever.

    We purchased the limited edition "Festival Food Set." Using the flower table and transformable chairs that she loves, she puts food on plates, pretends to eat, and plays house.

    My daughter is only 18 months old and still puts things in her mouth, so I like the fact that the materials used are uncolored and I can let her play with it safely.

    [Study desk made from 100% natural materials]

    Since the beginning of the year, my child, who is now in the first grade of elementary school, and I have been going around furniture stores looking for a desk, but we couldn't find one that we were satisfied with. My cousin's child was using Nakayoshi's desk, and my husband was quite interested in the Mitoyo factory, so when we were looking at the products, my child said, "This! Is this definitely the one?" ... It was love at first sight for the first time in my life (^^)

    My child's preference was for a desk and chair made entirely of wood, so they accepted my request and made a study desk, wagon, shelf, and side chair, and I waited for it to be completed. While I was waiting, my child seemed to have become quite fond of Nakayoshi's website, and when he saw the craftsmen, he said, "So cool... (/-\*)" On the day of delivery, I was fully prepared to take the day off, but my mother met the child before I sent him off (^^)v She felt the scent of wood for the first time! Watching them assemble it, my mother agreed... "Well, it won't work with any other desk (- -;)" When my child got home, the first thing he said was, "Where's the desk?" (^^) I thought he'd be excited and excited for a while, but when he met him , he just patted him carefully without saying a word... he just patted him carefully. After a while, he didn't come out of the room, so I peeked in and... it seems he fell asleep while I was petting him (^^) (as seen in the photo). The feel, the warmth of the wood, the smell... it must have been very comfortable (^^) I took pictures of him sitting and studying, and as a mother I think this pose best conveys the quality and kindness of the product and the craftsman. I think this wood will record the growth of my child as he experiences things for the first time on this desk and chair. I hope that in 20 or 30 years I can look back on my memories while looking at the scratches on this wood. My child was very happy with this Nakayoshi study desk set! "Gentle" is the best word to describe this item (^^)/ Thank you for this wonderful connection m(__)m

    [Monogatari Theaters]

    I chose this as a birthday present for my 3-year-old twins. Once I showed them the sample, they started playing together, pretending to be a giant turnip.

    He knew the story of the turnip from a picture book, so he was able to play with it easily. I'm thinking of reading the picture book of the three little pigs to him next time and letting him play with it again. He likes Nontan and has all the cast building blocks, and he uses them to recreate Nontan's story on stage. He's at an age where he enjoys pretend play. He plays with great pleasure, and parents watching him feel happy too.

    Play at home with wooden toys series [Kintaro 3 brothers with bear]

    I pressed the button repeatedly and finally got it! Thank you. It's a cute teddy bear. My son is already 9 years old, but he seemed to like it very much and was very happy!

    Since I have two children, I was thinking of taking out one of the dolls before giving it to them, but... Since school was closed, I went out with them to pick it up, and ended up opening it as it was. As expected, she said, "This is me, this is my sister, and this is... is it my mom? And what about my dad...?" When I said, "Isn't my dad... a bear?", she said, "Eh, that's not fair!" If it is commercialized, I would like to increase the number of dolls. (It doesn't have to fit all of them...) And since the stomach part can be removed, I would like to put fish (carp or something?!) inside. I put in yellow origami paper saying, "Because he is my dad... I have to put beer in him." By the way, the robot that was my sister's birthday present when she was 3 years old is still being fed various things. Children like to feed. All of the scrap toy series are cute! Please commercialize them! When this is over, I would like to go and see the store one day.

    Wooden toys to play at home series [Wooden smartphone stand]

    Thank you for this wonderful product. I'm so happy that I was lucky enough to be able to purchase this. I bought this product because I always forget where I put my smartphone, and I was also attracted to the indescribably adorable face of the robot!

    When it actually arrived, the first thing I noticed was how cute the robot was, carefully placed in the box and surrounded by wood chips. The smell of the wood was also very soothing. It's a smartphone stand, not that big, but it uses a combination of different types of wood, and I think it's a small product that has a strong presence despite its small size . Since it arrived, my kids have been playing with it, so I haven't been able to use it as a smartphone stand yet, but when my kids sit down to draw, I always keep the robot in front of them (^-^) Thank you so much. It was soothing. I'm looking forward to using it again.

    I bought a hinoki chest when I was pregnant with my second child. I've been a big fan of Nakayoshi Library ever since I bought them toys for my eldest son's birthday present. This time I decided to take the plunge and buy some furniture.

    I want my children to use good things for a long time. The drawer handles are cute and round, so even my 2-year-old can open and close them easily, so he now puts his laundry away on his own. I realized that using furniture made with children in mind can help support children's independence, so I'm glad I bought it, even though it wasn't a cheap purchase.

    And although my son has been using the Transformable Chair since he was a baby, he still occasionally sits on it and uses it to play. Recently, he has also been using it to put his school bag on, and as a footrest when sitting at his desk.

    It's been almost three years since this shelf arrived in our home. We were looking for furniture that was safe for children, beautiful, and authentic.

    I came across Nakayoshi Library. Since the day this shelf arrived, my daughter, who was 2 years old at the time, has been happily tidying up her toys. The top shelf holds her favorite tops and stationery, the middle shelf in the photo holds her playthings, and the bottom shelf holds stuffed animals and balls. The structure is very easy to use, as it can be used to classify both large and small toys. In addition, the entire drawer can be removed, so she can carry the whole drawer and play in her favorite place. Because the entire drawer can be removed, my daughter can pull out the items slowly and carefully, and thanks to this shelf, my daughter has also started to use the furniture with care. My daughter, who is now 5 years old, now puts her own small mirror on the shelf and gets ready to go to kindergarten every morning. We are very happy to be able to see our daughter's various growth through one piece of furniture. We would like to use it with care for a long time. The scent of hinoki cypress is also soothing.

    [Display shelf]

    When it arrived and I opened the package, my child said "How cool," "Flower," and "Sparkle," and ran his hands through the cutouts. The parents were so touched and excited that it seemed the child was also excited.

    I am impressed by the beauty and warmth of the product, even more than in the photos and images, and the simplicity of the cut-out parts. I was also impressed by the beauty and warmth of the pumpkin bath, but this product is larger than that and the knots have been beautifully polished, so I am even more impressed. As described, it is very simple and can be used for many purposes. Also, since there is no back panel, it does not feel heavy, so it is perfect for the living room.
    Since I can only post one photo at a time, I've combined the photo of my child putting his hands through the "shakana" with the photo of them decorating it, so it may be difficult to see. I really wanted to post both the photo of the ghost, pumpkin bus, and sunflowers decorating, as well as the photo of my child.

    I like wooden toys, so I have a variety of them, but they are all solid wood. This was my first time buying from here, and when I saw the pumpkin bus, I was surprised at how beautiful the natural paint was. I was also impressed by how soft and warm it was when I held it.

    In the photo, a child is imitating an adult playing the ghost memory game. He flipped the card over, said "No!" and put it back. My child doesn't play with it for long at the moment, but he plays with it when he remembers. The ghosts are very expressive and very cute, and I display half of it even when I'm not using it. Memory is very difficult because you have to remember the expressions, not the numbers, and I'm sure my child will be better at it when he's able to play it. I'm looking forward to displaying it on the display shelf that will arrive this month. It's a little disappointing that it's difficult to put the animals on the bus, and the storage bag is of very good quality, but it's just a bag. It would have been great if the bag had a company name, product name, or some other logo on it, as it would have made it feel more special.

    It has been over a year since I started using it, and recently, my child has started to imitate adults and bring the "Hanging Chair" to the table to sit on when reading the newspaper. He also uses the "Hanging Chair" as a step stool to turn the light on and off, and it is very useful.

    Nakayoshi's toys are wonderful, and especially the furniture, and there is not a day that goes by without them. Especially the long table and the transforming chair! Recently, I have been using them every day for coloring, drills, origami, and paper making👍 As for the transforming chair, he not only uses it as a chair (even though I didn't teach him when he was younger) , but also turns it upside down and climbs it to get snacks from the basket, washes his hands in the bathroom, brushes his teeth, and last year, he even tried straddling it as if it were a bicycle while practicing🤣 It is truly a "transforming" chair. As we have been adding more and more of them as he grows, every time I see the furniture, I remember what age I bought it for his birthday (or Christmas)😌 I hope that Nakayoshi's furniture will continue to be by his side as he grows!

    [Baby set]

    I was looking for a wooden toy and found this one, so I bought it as my child's first toy. He seems to like them all, and has been playing with them every day since we bought them. They have a wonderful wood smell, and I'm glad I found such a great toy.

    [A slightly larger picture book stand]

    The first thing we bought was a slightly larger picture book stand. It is loved by our children and us parents alike. It is in the center of the living room where the family gathers, and is also popular with our mom friends who come to visit our house.

    There are many similar products on the market, but it is hard to find a product that is as safe as this one, made from Japanese wood and uses safe adhesives . It is more expensive than cheaper products, but I have no regrets about buying it.

    [Climbing doll]

    About 17 years ago, when we went on a day trip from Takarazuka to Nakayoshi Library with our four children, my second son fell in love with Ponta at first sight and brought it home with him. Even now, at 22 years old , I still treasure it.

    My second son, who was about 3 years old on the day, fell in love at first sight with this Ponta (I gave it a name of my own), and even though it was not for sale, Mr. Hamada gave it to me as a present. This spring, my second son also graduated from university and joined the workforce. When he entered a university in Kagoshima, he took Ponta with him (laughs). Even now, I love Nakayoshi Library's works and buy them as gifts for acquaintances and my grandchildren.

    [Monogatari Theaters]

    I bought this because I wanted something to commemorate my child's first birthday that they could play with for a long time. The recommended age is from 3 years old, but when my child turned 1 year old, he suddenly started thinking up all kinds of games and having fun playing with them , and I was really impressed by that.

    The subtle scent of wood is soothing, and I'm also happy that it's safe to put in your mouth. In the future, when my children grow up and no longer use toys, I would like to display the small animals as part of the interior in various places in the house , and cherish them as items that remind me of when my children were small.

    [Baby Building Blocks]

    I was looking for building blocks for my 5-month-old son that were safe to put in his mouth and would last a long time , and I found this "Baby Building Blocks Special." As soon as it arrived, he started picking up the blocks with his hands and putting them in his mouth to play with them.

    Recently, my son has learned to play a game where I stack the blocks a little distance away, and he comes over and knocks them down with his hands . Thanks to this game, I feel that he has improved his crawling skills, as he wants to move forward. There are many other products that I am interested in, including the change chair, so I hope to gradually increase the number of products as my son grows.

    [A variety of toys and tools]

    Thank you so much for sending me this wonderful toy shelf!!
    And while I was feeling anxious and worried about the online order,

    Thanks to your kind and detailed consultation, I was able to place my order with peace of mind. Thank you very much. The product was also more durable than I expected, and it is imbued with the warmth of wood and the maker's passion. I immediately became a fan of Nakayoshi Library. I am looking forward to watching my child grow up with your products in the future.
    I'm not good at writing, so I may not be able to express my feelings well, but I wanted to send you an email in the hope that I can convey my gratitude to you, even if only a little. I know that you are busy with your production work, but please take care of yourself, and I hope that you will continue to spread your heartfelt children's furniture to children all over Japan.

    [Chest for secure storage of school supplies]

    Just when I was worrying about how to create an environment where my child could play on his own, like the nursery school he attends, I was amazed to see that he has become able to play on his own so well.

    I, as a mother, was completely captivated by the cypress scent of the "school supplies storage chest" I purchased for the first time and the soft, smooth feel when I touched it. Until now, my 2-year-old daughter would quickly get bored of a toy and move on to another toy, leaving it out and making the room really messy. However, when I put in a cute "transforming chair" that was my daughter's size and a "cypress shelf" that was easy for my daughter to put in and take out, her play style changed and she started to immerse herself in reading books and playing with dolls!
    I am so happy that my child is now practicing at home the tidying up techniques he learned at nursery school.
    The "Hanging Chair" can be used in so many ways that it's truly surprising! Sometimes it can be used as a table for playing house, sometimes for dolls to sit on, sometimes for my daughter to sit on and eat a banana, and sometimes for my husband to have a drink in the evening. I'm currently pregnant and it's just the right height for playing with my daughter, so it puts less strain on my stomach than sitting directly on it, and it's very useful. Wood is so mysterious. Just touching it makes me feel really warm, and it has helped me to raise my child calmly. I'm so glad I found Nakayoshi Library.

    [Cypress study desk]

    The study desk arrived safely. Thank you very much. As you can see in the picture, I have placed it next to the multi-purpose shelf I purchased previously. (The multi-purpose shelf is currently full of toys~_~;)


    I had seen the actual product at the Hamamatsucho exhibition, and as expected, it is very beautiful and easy to use, so I look at it with joy every day. My son also seems very happy with his own desk, and he is sitting at it and working hard on his unfamiliar homework that he recently started. I will take good care of it and use it for the rest of my life. Thank you so much for the wonderful desk!

    Thank you for making such wonderful furniture for me the other day. It arrived safely on the day of our move last week, and is now working as both a desk and an audio device.

    The smell of the wood is so nice and makes me feel happy. I had no choice but to purchase this from another furniture store, and the other items looked inferior, so I'm really glad I ordered this from you again.

    [Family bookshelf]

    I'm happy with it because it can hold a lot of sheet music. I think it's suitable as a bookshelf for a family. I'd like to try using it in different ways from now on.

    I think this family bookshelf will last a lifetime, and I would be happy if it could be passed down for generations.

    I'm glad I asked. Thank you very much.

    I ride the train when I wake up in the morning, when I come home from nursery school, and after I take a bath and until I go to bed - I'm on the train all day long.

    I drive it every day, so I've gotten much better at driving. I was worried that it would scratch the flooring, but there were no issues at all, it's been polished all over to make it round and gentle. You can really feel the craftsman's passion. I used the "Baby Set" a lot when I had a baby. I'm so grateful that they continue to provide such great products.

    [Transformable chair]

    I was surprised that the product arrived the day after I ordered it! Thank you for your prompt response. I chose this product for my daughter's first birthday. It was her first chair, but she sat on it. She even put her stuffed animals on it.

    It can be used as a toy by holding the edge and moving it around. Above all, the scent of cypress is soothing! My husband was also impressed with how well it was polished. Thanks to you, we were able to get it in time for my daughter's first birthday party. I'd like to have a slightly bigger picture book shelf someday, so I'd like to save up little by little! Thank you very much! If I ever go to Kochi Prefecture, I'd love to visit (*^^*)

    [Family bookshelf]

    When we moved to our new home in January, we purchased your desk and family bookshelf for my son (11 years old). The bookshelf was extremely heavy and it was difficult to carry it to my son's room.

    I realized that the weight of the product must be due to the quality of the wood used. It was also carefully made, so I'm glad I bought it. My son is using it as a toy shelf rather than a bookshelf, but he seems to like it very much. Please see the photo. We purchased a toy shelf from you about 10 years ago. My son used the toy shelf for a long time, but now it is being used as a shelf in the dining room. The shelf has turned a nice amber color. I wanted to send you a photo of this as well, but it is not in a state where I can show you yet (>_<), so I will send you a photo as soon as I have tidied up. Please allow us to continue to use the three pieces of furniture that we purchased from your company with care. Although the temperature changes are drastic these days, I hope that you will continue to provide us with wonderful furniture while taking care of your health.

    Thank you for the robot the other day. I was hoping to put it at the entrance!! But...

    The kids were so happy that they moved it to the living room and are playing with it every day. In the photo, the propeller on the head is spinning (lol). They put small toys through the eyes and put various things in the drawers... When they open the face, there's a table and a Moomin finger puppet! It looks like they're having so much fun. Thank you so much.

    The bed arrived yesterday evening. It was quite heavy and had been carefully packed, so it took a little time to assemble, but the easy-to-understand instructions made it easy to assemble.

    We installed it. We were impressed by the smooth, gentle, and warm texture that clings to your hands, and the solid, sturdy construction. My wife and I are happy that if we take good care of it, it will last for over 100 years, even our great-grandchildren. The baby bed we've been using until now looks like a toy. If you have any tips on daily maintenance, storage, or anything else you should be careful about, we would appreciate it. We are truly grateful for building such a wonderful baby bed. Thank you very much. Our grandchild will be coming home tonight. We're looking forward to it.

    I was impressed by the beautiful wood grain and careful construction. I was worried about the wall-mounted LAN wiring, but I was able to place it without interfering with it. There was not enough space on the TV stand...

    Because it is 135 cm tall, it was difficult to find anything commercially available, but in the end I was glad that I was able to ask Nakayoshi. In the same room, there is also a shelf for picture books and toys and a round table. My daughter uses them and they have become too much of a living space, so I have attached photos of the movable shelf and TV stand.

    I ordered this from them. The casters are very convenient, easy to clean, and the drawers are easy for small children to use. It was an expensive purchase for my family, but I'm glad I ordered it. I'll treasure it for a long time to come. Thank you very much.

    My son used the picture book and toy shelf before the family bookshelf. Now, the picture book and toy shelf is used as the family shelf. It's finally tidy ^ - ^ After 10 years, the shelf has turned a nice amber color.

    The snack packaging is exposed (^_^;), but I thought it would be nice to show how we use it in our home, so I took the photo without trying to dress it up (lol). I'd like to take good care of it and use it for a long time to come. I'm looking forward to seeing what color the shelves will be in 10 years.
