In the best interest of the child At Stokke, we have been creating innovative solutions for children since 1972. As our diverse collection of products changes, one thing does not: we never compromise on doing what is best for the child. We challenge conventional thinking and continually strive to make smart, stylish products that meet your family´s needs and that fit easily into your life.

hile still in mum’s tummy, a baby can hear the voices of people close to its mother, listen to the music in her world and feel the rhythm of her movements. Then, when the baby arrives, it immediately recognizes her voice and begins to look for her face. A baby´s brain will develop more rapidly between birth and three years than it ever will again and the experiences that babies share with key people in their lives will shape this development. That is why having a close connection between parents and child is so important and powerful during those first years. Comforting and encouraging interaction will make a baby experience the world as a safe place to be. The power of connection We want our products to help parents give their child the very best start in life. That is why all of our products are designed to keep your baby close to
you. “Higher is better” and “parentfacing” product features promote better eye contact and increased interaction between you and your child – while exploring the world together. Comfort and ergonomics Proper ergonomics is an integral part of a child´s wellbeing. We work closely with a wide range of external experts; designers, neuroscientists and medical professionals to make sure that our products give your child the support they need for healthy development. Quality Our products grow with your child and adjust for a custom fit as they become older, and the longevity and quality of our products is one of our top priorities. Timeless, iconic design and extraordinary European engineering result in quality that will make your Stokke products last for years.
Safety There is nothing more important to us than the safety of your child. Our products pass the most rigorous international testing and comply with global safety standards. You can always rest assured that our products are safe for your baby, for you and for the environment. It is our sincere hope that Stokke helps to make every part of your day together better.
"Babies arrive into the world already connected to the people around them." Dr. Suzanne Zeedyk

Trend Report Each year, our designers interpret trends related to fashion, color and interiors. These are used as inspiration for our seasonal products such as style kits and accessories. We´ve been watching key influencers and thought you might like to know what we´ve found. Here we let you in on the biggest current trends.
Retro Art Bright bold hues like orange and retro blue are stand out colors this season. Graphic and optical patterns, typical of the 60´s are back en force. They readily complement and update more classic pieces for a truly eclectic look. Paired with black, white and grey neutrals these strong colors make for a classic yet modern expression.

Nature Eco friendly materials such as linen, cotton and durable wood are all part of the current global environmental movement. Wood of all types, both light natural wood as well as dark walnut are popular pallettes for our Indoor and Nursery products this year. Our clever design team has implemented thoughtful, creative solutions improving both the aesthetics and functionality of your Stokke products. High quality materials and craftsmanship mean that they are durable, so that you can enjoy them for a long time.
Soft Pop Pink, baby blue, beige and grey are all sweet, soft pastels that work well together with darker colors to light up the nursery or make your stroller stand out. These subtle shades are perfect for Spring/Summer and will never go out of style. This warm colour trend enhances the feeling of softness and comfort for baby while adding playful, contemporary and fun elements.

Lifes greatest miracle Nothing can compare with the feeling of finding out that you are pregnant. For me, it felt like a true miracle that we had been looking forward to for a long time.
M
y son Arthur was born as a healthy, energetic and happy baby boy and my boyfriend Hein and I were in a bubble of joy. Still, during those first few months when our baby was a newborn, life was incredibly overwhelming and intense. Suddenly we were taking care of someone else in addition to just ourselves! Luckily everything fell into place as we got the hang of things. I began bringing Arthur along with me on outings, as I wanted him to get to know the people in our lives. In the fashion industry, it is essential to stay current, so I soon found myself back at work attending
fashion shows and events, proudly showing off my new buddy. The experience of becoming a mother for the first time has taught me that it is important to not forget about yourself and to maintain your own identity. When you feel happy and good about yourself, it positively affects the people around you. For me, it is important to remain engaged in my interests, and as a result, Arthur has turned out to be just as social as his mom and dad, so it works out perfectly. He loves to go everywhere with me and to be the center of attention.
Learning as we go Social media often tells us how to be the perfect mom, and there are a lot of ideas about what the ideal mother should be like. Everyone gives you different tips and advice. But I find it to be an exciting journey to find out what type of mom you want to be and which values you choose to bring into your own parenting style from your own upbringing. We felt so blessed when Arthur came into our lives, but the future also holds exciting news; Arthur is going to be a big brother. A new miracle is on its way, and our family is growing.

ith Stokke® Crusi my daughter and I can bond during our outdoor adventures. The high seat position keeps her up and away from the ground so she can see the world and experience new things with me. I love that while she is still young and wants to see me, I can position her facing me, and then forward towards the world as she grows! As a Fashion-forward mother, you can't beat the design of the Stokke® Crusi. People are constantly stopping to say how fabulous it looks. I can easily store everything I need and more in the super spacious shopping basket - this was a HUGE plus for us! And last but certainly not least, one of my favourite features of our Stokke® Crusi is the smooth ride. We can go anywhere with her, and know that she will be comfortable and happy!
China In China, most families have few children, and grandparents are highly involved. We all want to provide only the best for our babies.
T
herefore, we chose Stokke® Xplory® as our stroller. It is safe, comfortable to use and multi-functional. As a tall mum, Stokke® Xplory® is perfect for me. The high seat position protects my baby from dirt and traffic pollution, and lets him see more of the world. But the best thing about the height is the fact that it brings my baby closer to me. Stokke® Xplory® is comfortable for my baby, I can tell by his active and happy mood when riding in his stroller. He is waving his hands, smiling and flirting with us out of pure joy.

tokke® Scoot made it easy to go out with my baby for short walks, for longer distances and for weekend outings. Thanks to the high seat position, my baby can sit next to me at café tables without the help of a highchair. He also loves the view when he’s relaxing in the sleep position - the side ventilation lets him have a sneak peak outside through the ventilation netting, while having a smooth ride thanks to the rubber tires. As a marketer and a designer, my husband and I have high demands in regards to the design when choosing baby products. Stylish Stokke® Scoot has caught our full attention, it makes our daily life more comfortable and fits our lifestyle.
Russia My husband and I commute between Russia and Germany, and with the constant journeys and meetings it is very important for us to have functional and comfortable products, especially for our son who always travels with us.

ith Stokke® Xplory®, being on the go is easy. The stroller has a small footprint, it even fits easily in the small elevators in Russia. We also like the several adjustments of the stroller. We are both very tall, and the height and comfort of the stroller was one of the deciding factor for us - no need to bend your back and we are always in contact with Leon. The Stokke® Xplory® captures the style of the big city, and its maneuverability and practical swivel wheels are great for urban use. The wonderful Winter Kit also protects the baby from the biting cold Russian winter. 22

ore importantly the high seat positions lets me get close to my son and I can always have eye-contact with him when taking him for a walk or when sitting down in a café or restaurant. The function of the handle is also one of my favorite features. Since the handle is height adjustable, I can still comfortably push the stroller when I want to wear high heels. In addition, the handle can be folded down so it’s easier to have access to my son. The large wheels feel safe and stable when I get off the train and am walking on the street. My son is always happy and comfortable when riding his Stokke® Scoot.

For keeping that special connection. Research shows that we are all born into this world already connected to those around us. For nine months your baby has gotten to know you. The careful rhythm of your movements, your heartbeat, the warmth of your tummy and the muffled voice of a soon to be dad nearby, all add to your baby’s feelings of safety and security. Our baby carrier lets you keep this special connection. The transition from being together as one, to becoming two, is no small feet but it is this unique connection that you will both carry with you forever. A natural state of togetherness and a need to be by each other’s side. The Stokke® MyCarrier is built on your natural connection. Its aim; to help you be as close as possible, strengthening your unique bond.

Our latest innovation
Home is where the heart is
Introducing our latest innovation, Stokke® Home™; a modular nursery line that grows with the child from birth well into early childhood. A home is a place to be yourself, to be together with your family, to relax, play and to feel safe. There is simply no place like home. Our inspiration for the new nursery line came from this incomparable feeling we have when being in our own home. We wanted to incorporate these positive associations in the design, and began by focusing on the global icon symbolizing “Home” – the shape of a house. The concept was developed further into a functional, sleek line of nursery furniture made with premium quality and craftsmanship. The house shape is extra exemplified in the centerpiece of the collection; the Bed. We wanted the products to grow with your child, while transcending any trend and any period of time. Robert Myrene, Designer
The Stokke® Home concept with its modularity lets you choose your preferred components from the product range and design your individual room setting. It is perfect for petite nurseries using the compact solution and is also versatile enough to furnish larger nurseries depending on how you choose to arrange it in your space. It is easy to rearrange the modules to suit your ever-changing needs as your
baby grows or as you redecorate your home. Welcome to your new home! Quality Stokke® Home offers sturdy construction and durability that make it last for years to come. The wood components of the Stokke® Home nursery line are made of the same high quality European Beech that we use for our iconic Tripp Trapp® chair. »

Sooth your baby to sleep with a soft swaying motion. Stokke® Home™ Cradle The soft, light textiles of the cradle give your baby plenty of airflow and a cozy environment to rest, sleep and dream. At nighttime, keep your baby close by your bed – the cradle´s small footprint allows you to fit it into any size bedroom. The cradle´s light weight makes it ideal for daybed usage – just move it from one room to another.
The flexible Changer attaches to the dresser, the bed and the cradle stand. Stokke® Home™ Changer The changer is a versatile component that can be used on top of the dresser, the bed or the cradle stand, and attaches safely to all components. Protective sides and a padded changing mattress offer a safe and comfortable place to change your baby. You can chose both a sideway or parent facing position depending on your preferences and how you arrange your nursery. The included storage box keeps essentials close at hand. It is mobile and can be attached to any side of the changer. When your child is older, the changer transforms into a play table by placing it on the cradle stand.
Accessories We offer a range of textiles designed to create a protective and calm ambience for your baby, or a playhouse for your child.
Stokke® Home™ Bed Roof A soft, light canopy that shades your baby – creating a protective and peaceful place for your newborn to sleep. As your child grows the textiles encourage creative play by creating a roof on their little house. Stokke® Home™ Bed Tent The playful Tent textile creates a special place for your little one. A cozy hideaway to escape into their own private world, to read, play and imagine. With rounded windows for a view and roomy pockets to store favorite toys and special treasures – it is as functional as it is fancy. The neutral beige and white stripe pattern is versatile enough to compliment a myriad of nursery styles.

Storage space for their little clothes, toys and treasures. Stokke® Home™ Dresser The dresser is the perfect height for changing your baby when the changer is attached. The spacious, soft closing drawers offer plenty of room and give easy access without letting your baby out of sight. Open space for your feet under the dresser lets you get closer when changing and cuddling your baby. The Scandinavian design together with the durable material make it a classic piece of furniture that will last for years.
A bed, a changing station and a playhouse in one. Stokke® Home™ Bed The bed is the heart of the Stokke® Home nursery. Together with the cradle, the changer and the dresser, it offers countless possibilities for designing the perfect room for your newborn. The distinct house shape turns this bed into the centerpiece of the nursery. We offer a range of textiles designed to create a calm ambience for your baby, or a playhouse for your child. Not only is the concept ideal for your newborn as well as your growing child but it is also flexible enough to be customized no matter the size of your nursery.

Create your dream nursery The nursery is a special place in your home: a dedicated space for your baby to dream and play. It's exciting to think about how to turn what might currently be a spare room or blank canvas into this haven for your newest family member.
Everyone has different styles - let your heart guide you.

Make a mood board: search for pictures you love to keep your ideas focused.
Room layout: deciding where your baby will sleep is a good starting point. Select key furniture pieces first: a bed, a clever changing table and
general storage possibilities are key. Lighting: install soft lighting with
dimmers. A small accent lamp gives a
cozy glow and works well as a nightlight.
Install curtains or blinds for cooling the room during the day and for day time sleep.
Don't forget practicalities. Pay special attention to your baby's safety and
ensure everything's convenient for you. Plan ahead: think long term and leave
room to grow for your soon-to-be toddler.
Don't wait until the last minute. Enjoy the process and make the nursery a truly special room for you and your family.

My son and me We modern dads are supposed to be well equiped for fatherhood. Increasingly skillfull with a packet of wet wipes. Being able to tell the difference between your baby’s cries for food or another wet diaper. Well let me tell you, it doesn’t come naturally, at least not for this dad. It comes by getting to know your baby.
S
ure it’s nice being able to share the whole experience with your partner. Feeling those first few kicks, getting involved with prenatal activities and of course doing your bit at the birth, however inadequate or guilty that makes you feel. But let’s face it guys, the first bit’s all about mum and baby, and that’s how it should be. What awaits though is something altogether different. When Stokke asked me to write about my bonding experiences with my son Isak (three words that still feel strange and wonderful), those first Disney-like images of smiling babies and their superhero, square-jawed fathers didn’t seem to do the concept justice. So what exactly is bonding all about? For Isak and me it’s about sharing those things that make me who I am. Doing the things I love together with him. Moments where just he and I are taking part, where I call the shots and he follows my lead. It’s about creating a language between the two of us, 50
whether through smiles, giggles or his first few words. And yes, dads giggle too. A recipe for happiness From the moment we arrived home together, Isak became a permanent member of my kitchen staff. I love to cook and do so at least once a day. I like to think it’s my fault that Isak refuses to eat any type of ready-made food. He just won’t touch it. What I am sure of, is that his love for food and flavors has grown because he’s been strapped to my tummy by the chopping board. His first word apart from the standard repertoire was “cheese”, followed by “apple”, “pear” and “pepper”, perhaps the beginnings of a winning recipe. Our other love, which is easily combined with cooking, is dancing to 70’s disco. The harmony of our voices can often be heard throughout the neighborhood on a Sunday afternoon while lunch is bubbling away. Our bodies move as one, a shake of the hips and a pivot on the toes. Another pinch of nutmeg and
a splash of Boney M. Probably a good thing that good bonding shouldn’t have an audience. A year and a half into fatherhood, I know my son and he knows me and tomorrow we’ll know each other even better. Life tastes sweet. All the sweeter for those moments that Isak and I enjoy together.

Becoming a mother I vividly remember when baby James was placed into my arms for the first time. I looked at him in awe. This little, tangled human being was my firstborn son.
I
n many ways I didn’t become a mother the day that James was born. I became a mother through the endless sleepless nights when I sat in my bed, rocking him to sleep in my arms. I became a mother on those days that he refused to be put down and I strapped him into his carrier and held him close to me all day long. I became a mother that night that I put him into his pram at 11pm and walked around my neighborhood in the dark wearing pajamas and a coat knowing that it was the only thing that would lull him to sleep. Luckily, having a child isn’t all sleepless

nights and dirty diapers. For every month that passes, James becomes more independent. He grows so quickly, and has blossomed into the funniest, most awesome little human being. He starts every morning by exploding into smiles, kicking and throwing his arms around. He is a carbon copy of his father; they share mannerisms and facial expressions. It is uncanny and amazing. James is the best thing that has ever happened to me. The love has come tiptoeing in on me, more and more with each passing day.

The fast pace of a modern city makes for a busy life, especially with two small children.
T
his family makes the best of both worlds with an apartment in downtown Oslo and a summerhouse on the coast of Southern Sweden. It's not unusual in Scandinavia to have a vacation house but Helena and Lee's homes could'nt be more different with an apartment from 1920 and a newly built modernist summer retreat. They have two Tripp Trapp速 chairs in the apartment and a Stokke速 Steps chair in the house,
as Helena explains "We love our two Tripp Trapp速 chairs, the chair is a real Scandinavian design classic, practical and timeless. Our Stokke速 Steps chair really suits the summerhouse though with it's clean lines and more modern feel". But how do the children adjust to this lifestyle, not a problem according to Lee "Our highchairs have become part of the family, wherever we are the kids always feel at home".
