Moonkie: How Thoughtful Design And Real Stories Shape A Baby Brand Families Trust
Celebrating five years of turning everyday parenting into something unforgettable.

Families everywhere are invited to join the fun as Moonkie gets ready to light up Times Square on August 15 in celebration of its fifth birthday — shining a spotlight on how thoughtful design can turn everyday parenting moments into memories that last a lifetime.
This month, the beloved baby brand is celebrating its fifth anniversary with an inspiring campaign called Moonkie Brand Day, themed “Hug the Moments That Matter.”
From their very first product to today’s bestsellers, Moonkie has always believed that every giggle, snack break, and family outing is worth cherishing.
From Small Moments At Home To The Big Screens Of New York
Founded with inspiration from the quiet glow of the moon and the playful curiosity of a monkey, Moonkie has grown into a trusted name for families seeking thoughtful, practical, and beautiful baby essentials.
This summer, they are taking that message to their biggest stage yet. On August 15, a digital billboard in Times Square will beam out stories from real families, showcasing how children around the world are using Moonkie favorites like the Moonkie Hug & Go™ Toddler Backpack and the First Bites Feeding Set. These stories capture everyday parenting moments — joyful, chaotic, and full of love — bringing the campaign slogan to life: “From Our First Day To Their First Adventure.”
Whether it’s a baby’s first bite or the first day at daycare with a favorite backpack, every milestone feels extra special when the right tools are close at hand.
Thoughtful Design, Moments That Last
One of the reasons families love Moonkie is its clear, Montessori-inspired design philosophy. Unlike toys and products that can feel overstimulating, Moonkie creates baby and toddler gear that calms the environment and supports children’s curiosity naturally.
Montessori-style elements — from soft blocks and stackable pieces to pressable textures — help little ones explore while building fine motor skills and sensory awareness. Every detail, from muted colors to safe, soft materials, is carefully chosen to support confident play.
Mealtime, too, gets a thoughtful upgrade. Moonkie’s silicone baby utensils are ergonomically designed for small hands, easy to clean, and built to make self-feeding less stressful for everyone.
Tools Made For Tiny Hands, Big Discoveries
This year’s Brand Day campaign centers on the idea that the best memories are often the simplest ones. A day at the beach turns into an adventure when little ones scoop and build with the Beach Toy Gift Set, while the Playtime Gift Set supports early motor skills with stackable, pressable pieces.
Families who appreciate practical details will love the First Bites baby feeding set, which includes spill-resistant containers and feeders that make snack time less messy. Small touches, such as an easy-open lid or perfectly portioned snack cups, help toddlers practice independence while giving parents peace of mind.
The beloved Moonkie Hug & Go™ baby backpack is a hit with parents who want to give toddlers confidence on daily outings. The backpack’s soft, padded design comes in sweet character styles and is just the right size for daycare trips or short family adventures. It’s a little bag with a big job: helping toddlers feel proud and prepared.
Gifts That Grow With Family
For many families, Moonkie products become keepsakes that mark a baby’s first milestones. With numerous options to choose from, it’s easy to find baby gifts that are both special and practical.
From thoughtful first birthday gifts to personalized baby gifts for new parents, each product combines timeless design with modern functionality.
Brand Day is the perfect time to try something new. Select modern baby essentials will be available at special prices during the anniversary celebration.
Popular picks, such as the Playtime Gift Set and the On-the-Go Gift Set, make everyday parenting easier while keeping style front and center.
With options like the Moonkie Hug & Go™ Toddler Backpack, silicone baby toys, the First Bites baby feeding set, and the ever-useful sippy cup, families can choose what best fits their child’s age and interests.
A Brand That Grows With Families
More than just cute gear, Moonkie aims to build a community rooted in shared moments. The brand’s commitment to eco-friendly baby products means parents can feel good about what they’re buying — and the memories they’re making. Families around the world can join the celebration by sharing their daily moments using the hashtag #MoonkieMoment. These snapshots will become part of the Times Square billboard showcase and serve as a reminder that the smallest moments deserve the biggest cheers.
The anniversary isn’t just about looking back. With the launch of the MoonPoints Loyalty Program, parents can earn rewards for purchases and activities, turning everyday shopping into a way to stay connected to the brand’s journey.
From zipping jackets and finding lost shoes to family outings through busy streets, Moonkie remains focused on helping families slow down and savor the ordinary adventures that fill the early years.
