If you're looking for the ideal gift for a newborn... to something to keep a 5-year old happily-occupied on a rainy day, then the wooden toys of Bajo are just-the-thing.
If you think they are well-designed, you'd find many people in Melbourne who would agree with you. They may also tell you it's because the chap who designed them was a professional architect and design academic.
Bajo wooden toys are adored in Melbourne more than any other Australian city. Why this is, we can only speculate, but it warrants at least two websites dedicated to Bajo wooden toys in Melbourne, alone.
Designed and made in a small village near a verdant forest, Bajo toys of Kamionna, Poland are safe, stylish and a joy to hold. Packaged in brown cardboard with a notable absence of plastic, you can connnect with a Bajo toy even in its box on the retail shelf.

Hello and welcome to 'Wooden toys Melbourne', the website dedicated exclusively to the promotion of a remarkable brand of wooden toys, and it's availability in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
A newcomer to the Melbourne wooden toy market, 'Bajo' (pronounced "Ba-joe" in English, "Ba-yo" in Polish, and probably "Ba-ho" in Spanish!) toys are designed by architect Wojtek Bajor - and made in his commercial workshop in the village of Kamionna, Poland.
Kamionna is a village in the foothills of the Carpathain Mountains of Poland, central Europe. And it is from the neighboring forests and old orchards that the wood of Bajo toys is sourced.
Temperate-climate wood has rings which tell the story of years of growth. The rings which children are fascinated by, are there to see in Bajo wooden toys. The wood has known the weight of snow, the force of wind, and the warmth of Summer's sunshine. It tells a story that a child wants to know.
The workshop currently produces over 600 different wooden toys! While it may not be practical to bring all to the market at any one time, the people who distribute Bajo toys in Australia and New Zealand, have brought a fine selection of Bajo toys down-under. All Bajo toys are designed, made and packaged in Kamionna under ethical working conditions.
For those who wish to buy quality, Bajo wooden toys are the by-word for it.
The design, production and presentation of Bajo toys places the brand in the best stores in Melbourne with a discerning clientele. People who understand the vital importance of quality and good design for young children, and for giving items which are made to strict safety, ethical and environmental codes, buy Bajo wooden toys. Of course, there are a large number who just like them for what they are: adorable, reasonably-priced, European wooden toys.
Bajo's range includes wonderful:
stackers and sorters
doll's houses, doll's prams, and baby walkers
Have you seen the rattle fish?
Industrial designers, and those who recognise good design, are drawn toward Bajo wooden toys, indeed there are many who consider several Bajo wooden toys to be design-icons in their own right. Those nominated have been the Bajo racing car and the Bajo fire engine, and also the Ladybird.

The Bajo Educational line and stackers+sorters are brilliantly-conceived wooden educational toys for children from 1-4 years.
The Bajo bedroom items include toy boxes, toy chests, vehicle display stands, and wall-decorations which double as coat-pegs. You will also find hat and coat stands for the little ones, and even a picket fence and wooden flowers.
