Sending love to Ukrainian brands in the Playtime family

We are heartbroken as the war in Ukraine continues this week, and are sending hope and strength to all affected by this conflict.

We would like to put two Ukrainian brands that are part of the Playtime Family in the spotlight, to offer any support we can and introduce you to these inspiring, lovely brands. For other ways to assist Ukraine, here is a list of international organizations that are doing what they can to help.

Let's meet the wonderful Ukrainian brands that are members of our international family.

AFYNYKIDS
Ukrainian kid's fashion brand

Created to show their appreciation to all children, afynykids celebrates imagination and the belief that anything is possible. Afyny [a'fini] means "blueberry" in the Hutsul dialect of an ethnographic group of Ukrainians descended from ancient tribes that lived in the Carpathian mountains. They chose "afyny" for their brand name because it is a superfood full of nutrients and a fruit that is beloved from early childhood. Recognizing that environmental protection is not a choice, but a necessity to ensure the future of our planet, afynykids makes clothing that is good for children and the environment. Their fabrics are made of recycled and organic cotton, recycled polyester, and environmentally friendly cellulose with finishings that are free of toxic nickel and come from natural raw materials. Afynykids' prints are water based and hypoallergenic, and most of their production processes are done locally to reduce their carbon footprint. Drawing inspiration for their collections from global themes that inspire children and adults to improve the world, afynykids' Spring/Summer 22 collection is titled "Star Chef" and is currently available for immediate deliveries on the Playtime & Kid's Hub Marketplace. Place orders on the unisex collection designed for children 3 months to 8 years old and offer support to this inspiring Ukrainian brand.
