Childhood memories: 5x onze collega’s die vertellen over hun mooiste jeugdherinnering

Childhood memories: 5x onze collega’s die vertellen over hun mooiste jeugdherinnering

Creating Childhood Memories: Our Team's Favorite MomentsWhen you look back on your own childhood, there’s probably a specific moment or memory that stands out—something you reflect on with warmth and joy. It shows just how important it is to give your child beautiful memories to cherish later in life. We asked 5 of our colleagues to share their favorite childhood memory. Emy (37) – Social Media Marketer and mom of Phlyn (9) and Philou (7)My brother and I are only 1.5 years apart, so we did everything together. One summer in Spain, we had our own little tent next to our parents’ caravan. At night, we’d place pillows just outside the tent so we could lie down and watch the stars while chatting. One night, after our parents had already fallen asleep, we took our pocket money, snuck out of the tent, and went to the bar to buy ourselves some ice cream — and enjoyed every bite. Tara (29) – Brand ManagerMy favorite childhood memories come from the many holidays we spent in Italy. Vacations have always been a big part of our family — and still are! Every year, my parents, my brother, and I would camp at ‘Montescudaio’ together with another family. We had the best adventures: playing table tennis, eating Italian food, exploring towns, mini lip-sync shows, countless attempts at diving (I still can’t dive), and making new friends. I had the time of my life! Margreet (30) – Product Marketing Manager and mom of Elin (0)My childhood memory takes place on Sunday mornings, which were all about family brunch. Sitting around the table with my parents, brother, and sisters, enjoying croissants, fresh orange juice, and boiled eggs. We’d take turns helping to prepare the brunch. It’s a tradition I definitely want to continue with my own family! Inez (32) – Webshop Manager and mom of Charlie (2)My favorite memory has to be the fun camping holidays in the South of France with the whole family. We'd all pile into the car early in the morning. Every few hours, we’d get to open a little gift to keep my brother, sister, and me happy in the backseat. We’d spend the night in tiny tents, and I just fit on a small inflatable surfboard at the very back. Every morning started with baguettes and croissants, followed by building sandcastles on the beach. My dad would build cars, boats, pools, and castles with tunnels for our beach ball to roll through — that was the highlight of the day, next to getting ice cream in the nearby village. We still go back to that campsite, and it’s so special to now create those same memories with my own child. Shyra (22) – Graphic DesignerThe first thing that comes to mind when I think of my favorite childhood memory is the weekend nights when my parents, my twin sister, and I would turn the living room into a magical space full of mattresses, pillows, and blankets! My sister and I got to choose a movie, and we’d watch it together surrounded by tons of snacks. We were allowed to stay up late — every kid’s dream! Best of all, we were allowed to sleep in the living room afterwards. These were the nights filled with silliness, fort building, and quality time. Truly unforgettable memories! Als jij terugdenkt aan je eigen jeugd is er vast een gebeurtenis of herinnering die eruit springt en waar je met warmte op terugkijkt. Zo zie je ook maar hoe belangrijk het is om je kindje mooie herinneringen mee te geven om later aan terug te kunnen denken. Wij vroegen 5 collega’s naar hun mooiste jeugdherinnering.Emy (37) - social media marketeer en mama van Phlyn (9) en Philou (7)Mijn broer en ik schelen maar 1,5 jaar en waren vroeger altijd samen. Zo ook die ene zomer in Spanje, in ons eigen tentje naast de caravan van onze ouders. Samen legden we dan de kussens net buiten de tent om naar de sterren te kunnen kijken en gezellig te kletsen. Op een avond sliepen onze ouders al en hebben we ons zakgeld gepakt, zijn uit de tent geslopen om bij de bar een ijsje te gaan kopen en die lekker op te peuzelen.Tara (29) - brand managerVoor mijn mooiste jeugdherinnering blik ik terug op de verschillende vakanties in Italië, want vakantie stond altijd al centraal in ons gezin én nog steeds! Samen met mijn ouders, broer en een ander gezin stonden we jaar in jaar uit op de camping 'Montescudaio', waar we echt de leukste avonturen beleefden. Tafeltennissen, Italiaans eten, stadjes bezoeken, mini playbackshows, 1000 pogingen tot duiken (ik kan het nog steeds niet) en nieuwe vriendjes en vriendinnetjes maken, ik had de tijd van mijn leven!Margreet (30) - product marketing manager en mama van Elin (0)Mijn jeugdherinnering speelt zich af op de zondagochtenden. Deze ochtenden stonden in het teken van de family brunch. Gezellig aan tafel met mijn ouders, broer en zussen. Met lekkere croissantjes, verse jus en een eitje. Uiteraard mochten we om de beurt helpen met het verzorgen van de brunch. Deze traditie wil ik graag voortzetten met mijn eigen gezin! Inez (32) - webshop manager en mama van Charlie (2)Mijn favoriete herinnering uit mijn jeugd is sowieso de gezellige kampeervakantie in Zuid-Frankrijk met de hele familie. Lekker opgepropt met z’n allen in de auto in de vroegte vertrekken. Om de zoveel uur mochten we een cadeautje uitpakken om mijn broer, zus en mij op de achterbank tevreden te houden. Onderweg met z’n allen lekker knus in een mini tentje overnachten, ik paste precies op een klein opblaassurfplankje helemaal achterin de tent. Op de camping elke ochtend ontbijten met stokbrood en een croissant en daarna zandkastelen bouwen op het strand. M’n vader bouwde auto’s, zwembadjes, boten en kastelen waar het beachbal balletje doorheen kon rollen en dat was het hoogtepunt van de dag. Naast het ijsje dat we ’s avonds haalden in het dorpje naast de camping. Niet voor niets komen wij nog regelmatig terug naar deze camping en hoe leuk is het om dezelfde herinneringen nu te maken met m’n eigen kind? Shyra (22) - grafisch designer Het eerste wat mij te binnen schiet wanneer je mij de vraag stelt "Wat is jouw leukste jeugdherinnering?", dan denk ik aan de avonden in het weekend waarop we eens in de zoveel tijd met mijn ouders, tweelingzus en ik de woonkamer gingen omtoveren tot een magische plek vol met allemaal matrassen, kussens en dekens! Mijn zus en ik mochten dan een film uitzoeken. We keken vervolgens de hele avond film, met een overvloed aan snacks binnen handbereik. We mochten die avonden lekker laat op blijven, wie wil dat nou niet als kind zijnde?! Als kers op de taart mochten we natuurlijk ook in de woonkamer blijven slapen. Dit waren de avonden van lekker gek doen, hutten bouwen en gezellig samen zijn. Kortom, mooie herinneringen!

5 Must-Haves for a Cozy and Warm Winter

Winter is almost here, and it’s time to turn up the coziness with your little one! In our latest blog, you’ll find the ultimate winter must-haves to make this season extra snug. Think soft blankets, swaddles that’ll make you go “aww,” the cutest bathrobes, and comfy hooded towels. Ready to step into your baby’s winter wonderland with these essentials? Four Seasons of Comfort, All in One!It’s always tricky to know what your mini should wear to sleep — especially during those season transitions. The 4-season sleeping bag is the solution! With a removable inner layer, you can transform it from a summer sack into a winter one in no time. This ensures your baby enjoys warm, comfy nights — and it helps them sleep more peacefully. Sleeping bags limit movement and offer a sense of security. Winter has never felt this cozy! Knitted WannahavesA knitted blanket doesn’t just look cozy — it is cozy. Our lovely blankets from the Grain Knit collection are the ultimate must-haves to send your mini off to dreamland. Just pick your favorite trendy color, and choose between the version with or without soft fleece lining. Merino Wonders: The Softest Wool Blanket for Babies!A fluffy winter must-have for your little one! Keep your baby comfortably warm on chilly days with this lovely merino wool blanket. Merino wool is naturally self-cleaning, durable, and non-itchy — making it the perfect material for baby blankets. Pair it with a Jollein sheet and fitted sheet to create the ultimate cozy nest. Will you choose the color funghi or oatmeal? Hugably Soft BathrobesIf anything screams cozy, it’s a soft bathrobe for your little one. Our bathrobes all come with a hood to keep your mini’s head warm and dry, a snap button for a snug fit, and they’re made from the softest terry cloth to make your baby extra huggable.

That’s why we designed the perfect velvet sleeping bag for your mini. Made for sleep and cuddles, this sleeping bag has removable sleeves — perfect not only for winter but also for autumn and spring.

5 Ways to Make This Winter Unforgettable with Your Little One

5 Ways to Make This Winter Unforgettable with Your Little One

Oh dear, autumn and winter might not sound very appealing. It’s cold, wet, and seems endlessly dark. Your energy levels hit rock bottom, while your little one seems to reach new peaks—especially at night, when they’re wide awake and going through a sleep regression phase. Great! But pull yourself together, because here are 5 ways to make this winter unforgettable with your mini! Cozy Naps Together Yes, your energy is at -10, which is the perfect excuse to binge Netflix on your day off or take a power nap when your little dragon is also catching their midday snooze. When you both wake up, you’ll be refreshed and ready to enjoy some fun activities. The Christmas Show at Your Local Garden Center Say what?! It might not be the first thing you think of to do with a little one, but this is how I survived the last weeks of my second pregnancy with a toddler. Most garden centers start the festive magic in October — their usually dull setups transform into wonderlands filled with twinkling lights, cheerful music, magical fairies, whimsical animals, and lots of cozy vibes. So park your toddler in the cart and stroll around at your own pace. The Christmas village will quickly become your mini’s favorite spot. Bonus: grab a treat at the café — happy you, happy mini! Dancing in the Rain We adults think six times before stepping out in the rain, but little ones still see the magic in a rainy day. Let your mini put on their rain boots and a waterproof suit, and go splash in puddles together. The look on your baby’s face will be pure gold. Winter Walks Nothing beats fresh air for your little one. So bundle your baby in a carrier, slip on comfy boots, and head outside for a walk. It might sound boring, but it’s truly refreshing and a huge energy boost for you. Afterwards, you can cozy up on the couch with a warm hot chocolate. Cookie Time! Baking cookies together might sound chaotic — flour and batter flying everywhere, your mini zooming around the kitchen like a whirlwind. Luckily, pre-made dough is available at the supermarket, perfect for your little one’s short attention span. Together, you can shape, decorate, and enjoy delicious cookies in no time.
De favourites van de ‘New Chapters’ collectie van team Jollein

De favourites van de ‘New Chapters’ collectie van team Jollein

Bij Jollein op kantoor spieken we vaak ook even bij ons design team om het hoekje om te kijken of er al nieuwe designs zijn voor de komende collecties en staan we in onze handjes te klappen wanneer er weer een doos samples binnenkomt. Want hoe tof is het om een design tot leven te zien komen. Wij vroegen een aantal collega’s wat nou hun favo items zijn van de ‘New Chapters’ collectie. Janneke, inkoop, mama van Thijmen(10), Fenne(7) en Lize(6)"In de nieuwe collectie valt mijn oog op de Soft Waves artikelen. Een verfrissende collectie met net even een andere uitstraling, in frisse kleuren. En dan de nieuwe wikkeldekens Bear, echt een eyecatcher in de trendy bouclé stof." Cherèll, HR adviseur, mama van Sammie (1)"Mijn favoriet van de nieuwe collectie is het Grain Knit boxkleed in de kleur Wild Rose. Een heel mooi en dik boxkleed in een prachtige kleur. Aan beide kanten te gebruiken. Uiteraard voor in de box, maar ik heb deze het eerste jaar echt overal mee naartoe genomen. Zo kon mijn dochter altijd en overal spelen. Een echte aanrader!" Dorienke, product development, mama van Gaia (2) "In de nieuwe collectie spreekt mij de Dreamy Mouse lijn mij het meest aan. De dromerige wereld met bloemen, vlindertjes, bijtjes en de muis maken mij en mijn dochter van 1 jaar vrolijk. Het is juist zo leuk dat sommige producten zoals het koffertje en de wrapblanket de vrolijke all-over print hebben, en het boxkleed en de dekens 1 grote print bevat wat de wereld laat zien waar de muis leeft. Lekker wegdromen in deze fantasierijke wereld is dan ook heerlijk met de Dreamy Mouse." Emy, social media specialist, mama van Phlyn (8) en Philou (6)"Een slaapzak vond ik echt onmisbaar toen mijn kids nog klein waren. Heerlijk warm en na het wakker worden nog even knuffelen in het grote bed. En ik ben verliefd op de velvet slaapzak, zo zacht dat ik er zelf wel in zou willen slapen. En dan die nieuwe kleurtjes Olive Green en Wild Rose, love it!". De velvet slaapzakken komen in drop 2 dus stay tuned.
Styling the Nursery with the New Collection – Stylist Elina Helps You Out

Styling the Nursery with the New Collection – Stylist Elina Helps You Out

  From baby's very first bites to that very first bath: Jollein is there for all those special firsts with your little one. But there's one very special first that starts even before your baby arrives—during your pregnancy: creating a beautiful nursery! The nursery is where you’ll welcome your baby, care for them, and shower them with love. It’s also the place where your little one will drift off into sweet dreams. So, of course, you want to make this space as cozy and beautiful as possible!Maybe you’ve already started gathering inspiration, picked out a color palette, or even bought the first pieces of furniture. Once you have the basics in place, it’s time for the fun part: decorating with gorgeous accessories. From the softest bedding to a cuddly stuffed toy waiting patiently for baby’s arrival. From a cute changing pad cover to handy storage baskets. The Jollein collection is full of beautiful pieces you can endlessly mix and match. That way, you can create a unique look that perfectly suits your nursery. Stylist Elina is here to help you with some clever and creative styling tips! “What I love about the new Jollein collection is how calm and timeless the color palette is,” says Elina. “Shades like Olive Green, Wild Rose, and the neutral tones Nougat and Oatmeal work beautifully in any nursery. And because these colors come back in lots of different products throughout the collection, mixing and matching becomes super easy!” “You can really play around with this in the crib, since you're working in layers there. For example, pair the Twig fitted sheet with the gorgeous Grain Knit blanket in Oatmeal. The My Tiny Miracle top sheet is a subtle and sweet addition to this set—when you make the bed, you can fold the edge over the blanket to reveal the lovely message. Complete the crib styling with a beautiful canopy. My personal favorite colors for that are Olive Green and Nougat—they add a soft and stylish color accent to the space.”   Matching or Mixing? You Decide! “If you want to create a sense of calm in your nursery, it helps to make ‘links’ between different products. If you choose a knitted blanket, for example, you can find a matching changing pad cover and storage baskets in the same color at Jollein.” “Prefer a bit more boldness in the room? Go for a playful mix of colors or choose a standout print like Retro Flowers or Adventurous Animals. The sweet Dreamy Mouse print is also absolutely adorable—for baby boys and girls alike! And with the matching accessories, like the fun suitcase set, you can bring the print to life throughout the entire room.” Enjoy Every Step of Creating Your Dream Nursery Would you like even more inspiration and guidance?
