The nicest children's shops in the whole of the Netherlands

How about a list of the best physical children's stores in the entire Netherlands? You know, real stores with brick walls where you can browse around and splurge on absolutely everything, because everything is simply more fun in miniature. An added bonus: in such stores, there is almost always a corner where you can dump your little one (with all due respect, of course, and love, but still). Because while all those webshops are nice, as far as we are concerned, nothing beats seeing, feeling, smelling, tasting (who cares?), and experiencing all the stuff you want. Plus: a cutely wrapped gift is worth so much... Hence, the best children's stores in the entire Netherlands!

The capital shouldn't be left out either, with some tips for the little one. Although a few gems have been left out, that might only reduce the stress of choosing, making it more pleasant.

Repose Ams - Brandstore Amsterdam

Repose Ams - Brandstore Amsterdam

Since Repose Oost moved to the city center, many prayers have been answered, because: it is a more central, bustling street to combine shopping with a trip, and easier to reach by public transport for a day in the capital. Even from the shop window, it is hard to walk past the most cheerful shops. Step inside, and fun things come flying at you from all sides.

The brand Repose Ams has existed since 2014. Founder In-Yeo Couperus grew up in a small town in Friesland, where she began designing clothing at a young age. When the time was right, she moved to Amsterdam to study at the Fashion Institute. After years as a designer for major fashion companies, she took the leap in 2014, and Repose Ams was born.

Here you will find a lot of fashion from Repose itself, but also exclusive items that the brand sells only. In addition, a capsule collection is launched every so often, which is also available physically here, often with special gifts (such as a branded scrunchie or gym bag). All gifts are wrapped with care, making for a double celebration. We are fans.

We wouldn't be surprised if you looked up slightly astonished when you walked into this shop in Dokkum, Friesland. Nynstyles After all, owner Nynke bears quite a resemblance to Doutzen Kroes (no joke, and that – again – in Friesland). But if you can tear your gaze away from the beautiful and also very friendly Nynke, you will see nothing but Beautiful Scandinavian and the best from Dutch soil.

In addition, the very best may Ted baby and kids Don't miss this shop. Located in Sneek, the sweetest ladies will lovingly help you put together amazing outfits.

The best of Maastricht

The best of Maastricht

Nothing is more fun than a weekend in Limburg, and Maastricht in particular. Even better if there is plenty to do or shop for the little one.

At Monchou You can indulge yourself without hesitation. Dané, owner of Monchou, has hung the best items from various brands in the store. All-time favorites, but also unique items from new brands like Brunobruno. We are big fans.

The classic in the heart of Maastricht city center is, of course, Confetti. Here, in addition to nice gifts and fashion, you can also expect a children's hairdresser and workshops.

Zuid-Holland

Zuid-Holland

It's hard to choose in South Holland, as there are numerous charming cities with delightful hidden gems. Team Barts boekje has been a regular haunt for years. Kids DepartmentWhile many fell, this store remained standing. With a large store in Delft and a successful webshop, Kids Department is a household name in the Netherlands. On Fridays, you get a delightful dose of looks and inspiration on social media, so if that is what you are looking for, tune in to Friday!

Furthermore, we have quite a list in Rotterdam. There, we enjoy visiting Le Fanfare, Pomme de jus, and Big and Belgian.

The latter for the somewhat lesser-known, edgier brands and selection. Once a household name in Amsterdam, it has now also settled in Rotterdam. They sell Ziggy Zara there, among others, but also the colorful Jelly Mallow from Korea.

 

 

Meerkat

Meerkat

This Meerkat gets a special spot because it also holds a very big place in our hearts. We’ve written about it before, but former curator Susan really knows how to pick out the very best items for her shop. And that shop? It looks absolutely stunning too, with sassy wallpaper, lovely shelves and racks, and a large, colorful paradise.

The brands Susan carries are colorful, hip, and also quite contemporary. For instance, she was one of the first to start stocking the Australian brand Goldie + Ace. We are in love.

Not to mention the lovely gifts. Susan, for instance, has an entire stationery corner with the most beautiful pens, booklets, notebooks, and gorgeous cards. That’s where we’ve got you!

Noord-Holland

Noord-Holland

North Holland should not be limited to Amsterdam alone. And fortunately, there are still gems in this amazing province. For example, we find Milk in Heiloo, where many people from the Randstad (the urbanized western part of the Netherlands) move to and which is therefore booming. At Milck, the business is run by two ladies with a good sense of creativity, and this is reflected in the cheerful atmosphere. For cool kids, they stock brands such as Bobo Choses, Mini Rodini, Repose AMS, American Vintage, Piupiuchick, and Sproet & Sprout. So there is a selection in every price range. Additionally, this is also the place to go for baby shower gifts.
Mio Meraki is *the* shop of the Gooi. Where we said goodbye to Store of Daydreams a few years ago, we now go to Mio. From small gifts (earrings, bracelets, but also larger toys) to the nicest designer clothing. We are in love with their selection from Piupiuchick, but also Goldie+Ace and, of course, the absolute strongest Mainstory for cool girls and boys. Crazy about Mio Meraki, in short.
