Cradle to first day of school: Theme worlds at Kind + Jugend

A variety of innovative offerings for babies and toddlers

Recognised as the leading international trade fair for baby and toddler products, each year Kind + Jugend showcases current and upcoming trends in the industry. Organised into seven theme worlds, retailers can look forward to an exciting variety of offerings that will elevate business and customer engagement to the next level.

A key highlight of Kind + Jugend is the Innovation Award, which recognises the best product innovations across eight categories. Furthermore, the additional distinction, the "Midwives’ Choice", was conferred by an independent jury of midwives once again in 2025.

Four children's bicycles and a children's tricycle are displayed on white shelves against a white wall. The left bicycle is a light beige with black handles, seat, and tires. The center bicycle has a light blue pattern, gray handles, white tires, and a basket on the handlebar. The right bicycle is a light pink with patterns, wood-look handles, and white tires. At the bottom right is a small tricycle in light beige with black handles and tires. In front of the wall, two men are standing and looking at the bicycles while talking: one is wearing a gray polo shirt and has short gray hair, the other is wearing a white and blue striped shirt and has short dark hair. Their faces are blurred to protect privacy.

Moving & Travelling

Out and about with babies and toddlers: Strollers, bicycle trailers and other travel systems for big and small trips with kids.

A lovingly decorated baby or child’s room featuring a wooden crib with blue and white striped bedding on the left side. In the middle, there is a light wood dresser with three drawers, topped with a small lamp giving off warm light, a picture frame, a toy car, a cup, and a box containing decorative items. A note is hanging from the dresser. On the right, there is a changing table with a beige changing pad and a cloth, next to a large plant with long, narrow leaves. Below the changing table is a round, woven basket. The overall atmosphere is bright, modern, and child-friendly.

Furniture & Facility

A retail display area features a wide selection of neutral and beige-colored baby and children's products presented in a store. The items—such as soft plush toys, small towels, blankets, pillows, fabric storage containers, baby toys, and decorative items like teddy bears and elephants—are attractively arranged on several white tables and shelves. In the background, several people can be seen exploring the shop or using their smartphones. The atmosphere is calm and inviting, ideal for shoppers looking for high-quality baby products.

Home Textiles & Decoration

In the foreground, a large brown plush otter with a friendly face is holding a smaller otter doll and another small plush otter. In the background, a child with blond hair tied in a small ponytail is visible out of focus. The child is wearing light blue or gray-blue striped clothing. The scene takes place in a bright, welcoming environment, likely a child’s room or play area.

Toys & Education

Learning through play: Toys for babies and toddlers, and products for the formative years.

A row of children's clothing hangs on hangers attached to a metal rail. The garments are in various pastel colors and patterns, including stripes, floral prints, and solid colors. The selection is diverse, colorful, and suitable for young children or babies.

Maternity & Kids Fashion

From bump to baby: Baby, toddler and maternity fashion.

A selection of plates and bowls is displayed on a white surface.
