Wooden toys are both traditional and contemporary in their
design and are sourced from various manufacturers such as Plan Toys,
I'm Toy, Uncle Goose, Boikido and Orange Tree Toys.
Wooden toys are durable, beautifully made, easily cleaned and without
sharp parts and rounded edges are safe.
Wooden toys tend to inspire creative and imaginative play in children.
Modern high tech toys are often noisy and over stimulating.
Educational wooden toys can be an important tool in a child's
development from rattles for babies to role play toys for pre-school
children. Wooden toys allow children to engage in meaningful play,
developing cognitive, problem-solving and fine motor skills. Wooden
toys have unique textural and tactile qualities which invite children
to touch, feel and explore.
Some manufacturers of wooden toys source their wood from sustainable resources. For example Plan Toys and I'm Toy use Rubber
wood to make their toys. The rubber wood is recycled from rubber trees
that are no longer able to produce latex. In the past these trees were
cut, burnt and discarded.
