How to choose a wooden toy
Choose by the kind of play the toy offers: building, sorting, pulling and storytelling suit different toys. Check the materials, dimensions and age guidance on the product page and packaging.
Building and shape sorting
Start with recognisable shapes that are easy to hold. For a child who already enjoys building, choose varied pieces for trying out towers, bridges and patterns.
Pull-along toys and vehicles
Check the actual dimensions and where the toy will be used. When buying a train set with accessories, check compatibility with any tracks or vehicles the child already has.
Materials and cleaning
Toys can combine wood, fabric and other materials. Read the product’s material details and follow the manufacturer’s cleaning and care instructions.
