You can crochet this great Mouse Hunt board game  (for up to 4 players) yourself using colorful leftover yarn.With the cute game pieces (4 kittens and 13 mice), the game is especially fun! The goal is to catch as many mice as possible. But they can also be snatched away from you again. Whoever catches the Mouse King has an advantage, but you can lose him too.


If the play kitchen or children's grocery store needs to be stocked with fruit and vegetables, you can also wonderfully crochet the pieces using your existing leftover yarn.
In my shop you can choose from crochet patterns for the

Colorful Fruit Crate
.
It includes the pattern for 12 different types of fruit: apples, pears, peach, grapes, bananas, kiwi, plums, oranges, lemons, cherries, pineapple, and watermelon.


If you only want a small berry basket, then I recommend this pattern. In addition to the instructions for the basket, you'll find the pattern for raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, red currants, strawberries, and cherries.


You can also crochet a basket with 9 types of vegetables    ( carrots, bell peppers, tomatoes, eggplants, zucchini, leeks, kohlrabi, corn, and cauliflower) for the children's kitchen. It also works well as fall decoration, e.g. for Thanksgiving.


What little boy wouldn't want to own a toy train, even if he's still very small? But little girls can also get excited about this crocheted train, because all their little dolls can ride along in the cars.
You can purchase the patterns individually, so

the pattern for the locomotive
or

the pattern for the train car
which can also be designed as a circus wagon or construction trailer.
Or you can choose the
Train Saver Set
where you get both patterns together right away.




Unicorns are still very popular, especially with little girls. You can really ride on the Hobby Horse Unicorn Violetta . A soft pool noodle is used as the stick here to avoid damage to furniture or injuries during wild play.

Babies want to get Christmas presents too!


Music boxes are especially popular, of course, because they help little ones fall asleep. This cute lamb music box becomes especially cuddly if you use teddy yarn. So that the stitches are easier to see, I always crochet this yarn together with a thin carry-along yarn in a similar color. Then the stitches are easier to see and, if necessary, also to feel. But of course you can also crochet the lamb with a "normal" yarn of similar thickness.


The cuddly bunny Hoppel
and
Cuddly cat Mauzi

are crocheted using the same principle as a cuddle cloth, where the body is not stuffed. This makes it easier for the baby to grasp the little animal. Three kinds of yarn are used here: thin chenille yarn for the head, paws, and tail, and cotton yarn and teddy yarn for the body. The different textures of the yarns encourage the baby to explore the cuddly toy by touch again and again.


And for anyone who doesn't just want to cuddle, but also wants to be nice and warm in their little bed, these two are perfect:
Warm Bear Kuschel (cover for a grain pillow)
and
Warm Monkey Bibo (cover for a grain pillow)
The grain pillow is removed from the animal's belly and warmed in the microwave for a few minutes. Then it goes back into the little animal's belly and can now warm up the little bed. Also highly recommended for a walk in the frosty winter or for tummy aches!

How about a cute cuddle cloth that can later also be used as a gentle washcloth? The wonderful animal motifs will make children’s eyes light up. All the cloths shown are knitted in double-face, which makes them cuddly soft, and they also look great on both sides.

Knitting pattern for the "Diggi Dino" cloth





Knitting pattern for the "Tobi Bear" cloth



A little more elaborate to make, but a big highlight under the Christmas tree, is this gym bag "Life is magic." The base is crocheted in rounds, and everything else is knitted in double-face. This makes the gym bag very sturdy, and it will become a loyal companion for every unicorn fan!

Have lots of fun giving them as gifts!

Here are some suggestions for cozy winter accessories that children are sure to love for Christmas—they not only keep them nice and warm, but also look super cute. The loops and hats are all knitted in double-face. This makes them extra dense, and they look great on both sides, so they can be turned inside out too.

There are also great motifs available as crochet versions, which, beautifully wrapped as a cuddle cloth or washcloth, will make children's eyes light up at Christmas! 




Crochet pattern washcloth "Cheeky Sheep"





Crochet pattern cloth "Tobi Bear"





Crochet pattern cloth "Love Birds"





Crochet pattern cloth "Elo Elephant"



And the enchanting cowl with little bear cub Tobi is a very special Christmas gift. Little Tobi, snuggled up close to his mom, finally gets to experience snow! Maybe that's a good omen for a "White Christmas"?

Enjoy crocheting and giving them as gifts!

Especially for toddlers, there are lots of ideas for things that could delight them. Toys can also be knitted or crocheted nicely. Here you’ll find a few models to choose from.


You can knit baby’s first cuddly bear yourself, even if you still count yourself among the beginners. It’s really easy.

To the knitting pattern




There’s even matching clothing for this little bear—a sweater with a baby sleeping bag.

For the play kitchen, you can conjure up a great menu for the dolls using leftover yarn. It sparks the little ones’ imagination and is sure to bring joy—even while crocheting. The menu includes everything children tend to like: toast with butter and a fried egg, pasta, and vegetables.

To the crochet pattern





Toddlers with a play store will be delighted with this little shopping bag, which you can give filled with lemons and carrots. Very easy to crochet.

To the crochet pattern




A bag for walks or for starting kindergarten, with adjustable straps, is also a lovely and practical gift at the same time. The bag is very sturdy and has a double bottom. Recommended for experienced crocheters.

A toddler with a balance bike, Puky, or tricycle is sure to be delighted with this attachable bag. It fits these vehicles perfectly and also has a double bottom.

And here are two more crochet models for dolls measuring 43-50 cm:

One thing a baby doll definitely needs is a diaper. This one is very easy to crochet from colorful leftover yarn. It's also easy to use because it has a hook-and-loop closure.

And there is also a crocheted sleeping bag that even fits perfectly in a doll stroller.

Of course, there are also cute clothes for other sizes. Now I'll show you clothes that fit small teddy bears measuring approx. 25-30 cm.

Here are some more toys with a special feature that is very popular.

This little bear guards the children's room door. It is very easy to crochet.

To the crochet pattern




If you prefer owls, they are also available as door hangers.

To the crochet pattern





Of course, an Advent calendar should not be forgotten either.

You can crochet these cute little gnomes in different sizes and fill them with small gifts. By Christmas, a large family will have formed, and they can all move into the gnome house together.

Most children love sweets, so they shouldn’t be missing from Christmas gifts. In this explosion box, they are packaged in an unusual way and are sure to bring even more joy! The card, which opens in a spiral shape, offers plenty of space for Christmas greetings, photos, sayings, and similar items.



The explosion box is made from photo cardstock, decorated with patterned paper, and measures approx. 12.5 x 9.5 x 14.5 cm. The small inner containers measure approx. 9 x 6 x 7 cm. With a little crafting experience, the box is easy and quick to make.

With this pattern, you’ll make little dinosaur fans very happy:

Introducing Dino Dieter



Dino Dieter is one of the larger stuffed animals, so now is the perfect time to start crocheting and head into the Christmas season feeling relaxed and well-prepared.

You’ll need 2 skeins of cotton yarn (e.g., Catania) in the body color, 1/2 skein for the spikes, and a little black—and you’re all set.

Click here for the pattern.

I hope you have lots of fun crocheting!

Blankets make a lovely gift for the little ones



Crocheted in spiral rounds, this blanket can be made in any size



Or perhaps a knitted blanket —a cable-knit look without a cable needle



This crocheted balloon cover is perfect for play. It’s made from individual granny squares, so the balloon is well protected and can be quickly swapped out for washing. 



A colorful pennant garland for the children’s room—quickly crocheted from our leftover cotton yarn 



You’ll also find knitted doll shoes and baby booties in my shop. The booties are knitted with a set of double-pointed needles, and the pattern will guide you round by round all the way to the end.

This little cloth featuring the enchanting Ella the Unicorn is a wonderful gift for all little unicorn fans. It can be used as a comfort blanket right from birth, and later on, Ella makes a great washcloth. This way, the child who receives it will have a faithful companion for many years to come.

The cloth is knitted in double-faced stitch, so it looks beautiful from both sides and is cozy and soft.
