Welcome to Leika (pronounced “Like-uh"), which is a Scandinavian word for “Play". We bring this Scandinavian aesthetic of simple sophistication and folk-art inspiration to each of our line’s four woodland animals: Fox, Raccoon, Owl, and Bunny. Each of Leika’s character’s distinct personalities is brought to life in its coordinating designs, including a soothing teether, a board book of adventures, a huggable lovey, a charming rattle, and a soft toy. Leika offers a peek at a different culture’s joyful embrace of childhood and as an invitation into a world of whimsy, wonder, and imagination. In 1933, Mary Meyer started sewing unique companions for her children and neighbors. To this day, here in the hills of Vermont, Mary's grandchildren and great-grandchildren continue that same tradition of building care and comfort into everything they create. Whether it's picking out the perfect gift for a loved one, receiving a toy friend that will become a best buddy, or cuddling up with and enjoying the luxurious, premium fabrics of our soft toys—when it comes to Mary Meyer, it's love you can feel.
