When two children give birth to a company....

In 2011 , little Zoé was born into our home. With her zest for life and mischievous smile, she gave us the opportunity to find within ourselves the necessary resources (and to let go^^) to offer her the best for her development. We quickly discovered the Montessori method , and our tools began to work.



Fifteen months later, in 2013 , with the arrival of our Gabin , we had to revise our plans.... our little man is a keen fisherman and a fan
of all kinds of games, so we let our creativity take over.

Since homeschooling was a natural choice for us, we made a large part of the Montessori materials and various educational games ourselves.


Seeing our homemade toys, our friends wanted the same... then our friends' friends... we decided to launch ourselves on the French platform "A Little Market" in November 2014.... ZG-jouetsbois- was born.... (what do you mean I didn't exactly rack my brains to find the name :-) )



Very quickly our equipment, lovingly made in our tiny family workshop (9m²), equipped schools, nurseries, kindergartens, and homes all over France and in neighboring countries.

In 2017, A Little Market was bought by an online sales giant... so we took the option of duplicating our shop... on Un Grand Marché and on Etsy.... our material was successful internationally from the first months.
Due to the growing demand for our products, our shop became a professional business in 2020 , while still maintaining the home education of our two children, which is so dear to our hearts.

In 2021 , we embarked on a major relocation and moved into a space of over 150m², a few months later we had the honor of welcoming our first employee...


Today our story continues on our own website , our catalogue is expanding, our brand is registered and recognized for its quality across the oceans.
That's how the birth of two children gave us the crazy idea to start a business :-)
We wouldn't be where we are today without your support and trust, so thank you for recognizing our passionate and meticulous work.
The entire ZG-jouetsbois team says a big THANK YOU !!!
