It's nice to meet you!

Hello 👋 My name's Jen and I started paper + bean in 2019 during my first pregnancy.

The shop has grown around my little one and my experience of parenting, my understanding of the juggle and mental load of parenthood, and not forgetting how bonkers our little one's social life is 🤪

So, at paper + bean we aim to make one thing in particular that little bit easier. We make shopping for kids gifts really simple for really busy parents.

Why shop with us? 

Let's be honest, we all like a toy that's fun for the kids but when spending money on gifts for them we want something they get a little bit more out of, right?

All of our products aim to encourage learning during whatever developmental stage they're at, with games, puzzles, books, art prints and activity kits for age 0-5 years. Everything is tailored to what you're searching for - high quality, affordable and unique toys to fulfil curious little minds - and no plastic tat in sight! 🌿

Keeping our planet happy!

Keeping our planet happy starts with the little things - like choosing toys that are kind to the Earth! 🌎🤗 It's something we've been conscious of from the start.

All of the products we design are environmentally friendly and we have spent ages and ages researching the suppliers and other brand products we offer to make sure we're all sharing similar sustainability values.

We've also supported lots of reforestation projects! Have a look here 🌳
