🐾 About Zigglies
Zigglies started with a simple idea — to create small, wiggly characters that bring big joy. What began as a hands-on experiment quickly grew into a world of collectible companions, each with its own personality, movement, and charm.
At the heart of Zigglies is a mission: to give children fun, engaging tools and toys that inspire imagination and help them spend less time on screens and more time creating, exploring, and playing. We believe the best kind of play is the kind you build yourself — where stories, characters, and adventures come to life in your hands.
From colourful Zigglies and interactive Build-a-Bugs to glowing Naturelings and playful Bath Buddies, everything we create is designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and connection. Whether it’s trading with friends, discovering a favourite character, or building something new, Zigglies is all about shared moments of fun.
Founded by Xylan de Jager in South Africa, Zigglies is built on a few simple values:
- Imagination first — toys that encourage creativity and storytelling
- Play together — bringing people together through shared experiences
- Keep it fun — everything we do should feel exciting, playful, and full of life
Looking ahead, our vision is to grow Zigglies into a full world of play — expanding into games, learning experiences, and interactive educational kits that continue to inspire kids to think, build, and explore beyond the screen.
Zigglies isn’t just a toy — it’s a little world you can carry with you. 🐾
