Little Bloomer Review: Little Dreamer Box 2024

Little Bloomer is a new quarterly subscription toy box for babies.  It’s more than just toys though, it’s also meant to help parents nurture their little ones with stress-free expert tips and resources. It’s been a minute since I’ve had little tiny babies, but I can vividly remember those first giggles, the special milestones, and the snuggly moments. It was fun to go back through memory lane with some of these adorable options for babies!

Little Bloomer is unique – they’re expertly curating sensory collections for babies based on their age and stage.

Unboxing the Spring 2024 Little Dreamer Box by Little Bloomer

The Little Dreamer box by Little Bloomer might have been one of the largest subscription boxes I’ve had the pleasure of unboxing! I’m excited to share it with you because I can see tremendous value in how it will help and support parents and their babies with an added layer of convenience and comfort knowing that experts curate the products.

Let’s take a peek at what was included in the Little Dreamer Box by Little Bloomer…

3-in-1 Playmat: This playmat is thoughtfully designed with a variety of ways to use it. Baby can lay & play with captivating hanging toys, develop motor skills during tummy time, and enjoy peek-a-boo fun with the mirror when sitting up. I loved how easy it was to assemble, and how portable it can be. You can take the hang bar off and the mat lays flat or snaps together to stand up in a triangular shape. It’s great for travel and can easily be tucked in a bag when folded. The flat position could be a great option for diaper changes in a pinch as the surface is easy to wipe clean.

High Contrast Mobile: Great for babies to work on visual skills and sensory development. This mobile has unique patterns and bold shapes on each side of the discs and swivels and swirls for extra visual stimulation. I love that it lays flat which means it’s easy to store and bonus: no assembly required! Thank you Little Bloomer! It has a little nylon loop at the top for hanging.  I was impressed by the high quality of this mobile, it felt really sturdy and secure. It’s made with a stainless steel frame and the discs are made of baby safe plastic.

Bloom Buddy Stroller Toy: How cute is this little guy? It’s creatively designed with lots of different textures and colors.  For example, there’s a rattle in the center, the “petals” are made of 3 different textures including irresistible crinkle inside. My little guys used to love the crinkle! The legs are stretchy with squishy feet and fun patterns. At the top, it’s attached to a solid wooden ring.  I imagine this will be baby’s new favorite toy!

Little Learner Links: Every baby needs something like this – and I love this one for the vibrant colors and the soft velvety smooth texture. I also love that they can be taken apart, linked together, or even attached to other objects like their playmat, the Bloom Budy toy, or their stroller. Each link has a different texture from little bumps, beads, flower patterns to lines. Lots of textures to explore and gum. It didn’t say if they were dishwasher safe, but they’re made of baby-safe plastic so it makes me think that they might top rack safe. I think this is one of those must have versatile toys that you can’t go without, and I must say I really love the Little Bloomer version!

Jingle Booties:  I couldn’t even stand the cuteness of these! They’re so, so adorable – with their black and white pattern, and squishy little “X” and “O” embellishments. The best part is, surprise – the “X” is a little rattle, and the “O” squeaks! What a fantastic way to teach little ones cause and effect as they discover the jingly, squeaky fun! They’re made of cotton and polyester and must be hand washed and line dried. I just loved these and thought they were so unique and creative! A+, Little Bloomer team.

Peek a Bloom Board Book: Show me a baby who doesn’t love board books… This one is extra fun with the little face popping out of the center! Each page is creatively designed with a variety of bold black and white patterns to really capture attention. The center is made of soft material that adds a layer of interest. Such a great way to start little ones developing a love for books.  Each page is very thick, durable board book material and I appreciate that extra bit of quality.  This one looks like it’ll hold up to little mouths without getting soggy and destroyed.

Soft Sight Mirror:  This oversized stuffed toy is made of soft, crinkly material and on the flip side, a baby safe mirror. I love the added attention to detail on this toy, with a mix of bright colors, and various textures creating a border around the mirror. They’ve also added two little plastic rings for extra discovery and play, as well as a nylon loop to easily attach the mirror to a stroller or car seat.  I thought this was a really fun product to include, that’s perfect for capturing those first reflections.

Patterned Cards: These were tucked into the 3-in-1 playmat, but they’re a great toy option on their own too! Made of baby safe plastic and bold visual patterns, they’re perfect for visual development. Use these on their own, or as baby grows, a gross motor activity where they can put them in and out of the pocket on the playmat.

Tote Bag: This is genius! Little Bloomer included a large tote bag to store all the toys in for easy clean up.  I love this!  What a thoughtful way to serve new parents.  Everything fits nicely in the bag with room to spare. It can be tucked under a couch for out of site storage, or hung in a closet or on a hook.  I really loved this added touch by Little Bloomer.

Little Dreamer 2024 Review – Final Thoughts

I was very impressed with the quality of the products included in the Little Dreamer box by Little Bloomer. It felt like each toy included had more and more to discover than you might initially think.  That’s the benefit of receiving toys designed by play experts. They don’t miss a thing!

One thing that particularly stood out to me was the immense value of receiving products that are age and stage appropriate, vetted by experts, and that just show up at your door right when you need them.  As a new parent, there are so many products to choose from, it can feel overwhelming. We all want the best for our children, and we want to know that we’re doing the best for them.  Little Bloomer marries those two desires for new parents so perfectly, by providing not only the practical toys that they need without the stress of having to research, find, and order on their own, but also the expert tips and advice that come with the app by being a member.  It is comforting to know you have a trusted resource you can turn to when you have questions about your baby’s development and play.

I think Little Bloomer would make a fabulous gift for new parents and I’m already thinking of who I could gift one to!

The next stage, The Little Giggler box, for 3-6 month olds is launching in June.  I have no doubt Little Bloomer is going to knock it out of the park! I’m excited to see what they include.
