We are Stavros and Maria, and we welcome you to ILIAHTIDA!
A magical place where play, imagination, and joy weave moments that remain forever in the heart and mind.
It all happened from 2005 to 2008, when we left the city for a more "authentic" life on Naxos. Both of us originating from this blessed place, we charted our new course towards our dream...
Years as professionals, artists, dreamy travelers, parents, we created on the island a shop with wooden ecological toys for both young and old, ILIAHTIDA!
Seeking quality and the values of life, inspired by our children, we discovered and came into contact with small artisan workshops from around the world.
Thus, today...
...ILIAHTIDA is the exclusive distributor for selected companies and features in its collection unique toys and items, exquisitely made by hand from natural materials, sustainably sourced, environmentally friendly, created with abundant love and care!
At ILIAHTIDA, we choose toys that contribute to the child's holistic development. Play, as a basic instinctual need, creates an inner space of safety and warmth, where the child develops their natural inclinations, finding themselves mentally, emotionally, and physically.
From an early age, a child expresses their energy through play. Play helps in the maturation of their personality and supports their adult life. At ILIAHTIDA, toys offer joy, knowledge, and timeless value. Through play, a child learns to work and to love!
At ILIAHTIDA, play becomes once again what it always was—inspiration, dream, creation, joy. For children, the world is good; everything around is a miracle, life is a game, let's share the joy with the children and discover the hidden child within us!
"Tell me and I will forget, show me and I will remember, involve me and I will understand."
