Jan van Haasteren Junior featured on Children’s Charity Stamp and Puzzle

The Children’s Charity Stamp Campaign has begun again! And this year is an extra special one: Jan van Haasteren designed the 2025 Children’s Stamp, and a special puzzle has been released. A true collector’s item no fan will want to miss.

A cheerful, detail-packed design

This year’s stamp shows twelve children playing together. As always, it’s full of classic Jan-style details: a spy hiding under a paving stone, a shark fin, and even a plaster on the bin. The theme this year is “Together against loneliness”. Whether you’re puzzling, playing or singing — doing it together is always more fun.

The special puzzle is based on this design. As you’d expect, there’s always something new to spot: the longer you look, the more jokes you’ll find. It’s not just great fun to assemble, it’s one you’ll want to put together again and again.

Jan van Haasteren himself says:
“It’s quite something to see my drawing on the children’s stamps. I follow in impressive footsteps: Dick Bruna, Marten Toonder, Jan Kruis and Joost Swarte, for example. I’m truly honoured to be part of that list.”
