Together for Playful Learning: Our Collection with Silvia Resei
So glad you're here! We're thrilled to introduce a very special collection created in collaboration with Silvia Resei. Silvia is an occupational therapist through and through, and inspires thousands of people on her Instagram channel @silvie.ergotipps . There, she shares her knowledge, gives creative tips for everyday family life, and shows how playful learning strengthens children's development.
The idea for this collaboration grew out of our shared vision: to create products that aren't just practical, but genuinely delight both children and parents. Silvia brought her deep expertise and experience from occupational therapy to help us develop three one-of-a-kind products together. Every product was designed with love to playfully support motor, sensory and cognitive skills – while having plenty of fun along the way.
Let yourself be inspired by this special collection that makes everyday life a little easier and a lot more colorful. We're proud of this collaboration and hope you're just as excited about it as we are!
About Me:
I'm Silvia, 32 years old, from beautiful Austria. I completed my occupational therapy degree in 2015 and have been working in my dream job ever since. Working with children fulfills me so much, and I love how much kids appreciate it when we meet them at eye level and respond to them as individuals. It gives so much back, and children teach us adults so much too.
Since early 2023, I've been mom to a little daughter, who has completely turned my life upside down in the most wonderful way and made it so much more beautiful.
Questions for Silvia
Question 1
WHY DO I LOVE THE QUIET BOOKS, TRAVEL BUDDIES AND ALL THE OTHER JOLLY DESIGNS PRODUCTS SO MUCH?
- They're interactive
- They have a real "come play with me" quality
- There's something for every age group, from babies right through to school age
- They train fine motor skills, grip strength, movement and action planning, focus, touch, visual perception, creativity in free play, and so much more, depending on what's included
- They also provide moments of calm in between
- The quality is simply TOP-notch, and I personally think you can feel the love for detail in every product
- They also make wonderful travel companions
Question 2
Why did I want to create my own products together with Jolly Designs?
Honestly, mostly for the reasons above. I'd always wanted to create something meaningful that's also fun for kids, and with Jolly Designs I simply found the right partners for that.
The Mini Quiet Book Mondschein means so much to me – I love our evening routines, and we love reading and looking at books together. It lets us talk, do something together, and create beautiful, calming moments in the evening that prepare us for bedtime.
I came to the Travel Buddy Komm mit mir nach draußen because my daughter already loves the Travel Buddy Dollhouse so much, and I wanted an extension that would combine well with it.
And the book Mein Tag simply grew out of my work as an occupational therapist, because everyday things mean so much to children – they learn from them and keep developing.
