PLAY • EXPERIENCE • LEARN We are a family business and have a tradition in the toy industry for more than 50 years.

Guided by our motto “Play – Experience – Learn”, we create, develop and distribute educational toys and equipment for children in kindergarten and day care between the ages 2 to 7 years. We believe that children do not play to learn, but they learn because they play.

Therefore, beleduc products are more than educational toys, through the “playful” learning approach, our products provide a high incentive to play and are fun for kids so learning happens incidentally on the way. A beleduc product is a pedagogical learning concept with the child as the main focus that is developed based on current curriculums and with experienced pedagogues. By doing so, we pay great attention to the holistic education approach which is explained in additional product materials for teachers and caretakers. It is our continuous ambition to create and develop educational toys that enable all children around the world to call and expand their potential.

With over 30 years’ experience in the education market, edx education designs and develops innovative and quality educational products for a broad range of markets including early childhood, kindergartens and primary schools.

100% earth friendly play! The story of Unit Bricks® began with a family of builders who were always building and designing together.

They got a kick out of watching their children start building with blocks. This got them thinking. "What if we could create an affordable, multi-sensory, sustainably-made and durable unit block set". After five years of research, development and testing with educators, they created Unit Bricks®. Already at work in schools across the United States and Europe, the expertly designed size, shape, weight and feel of Unit Bricks® has ignited children's creativity and set the stage for intellectual and cognitive development.

Unit Bricks® are made of 100% sustainably grown, solid, hand carved and organically dyed solid wood. And by using the entire tree, roots and all—they strive to produce environmentally friendly products by reducing energy usage during production and creating minimal waste. Unit Bricks® only use organic water-based colour and non-formaldehyde glue. Unit Bricks® contain zero plastics and are completely non-toxic.
