Why Do Childrens' Wooden Toys Last Forever?

Producing childrens’ wooden toys requires nothing short of creating a masterpiece.
The skill, creativity and effort that goes into crafting such a treasured toy is remarkable, and is probably the reason why they are cherished and loved for years and years.


Very often, childrens' wooden toys become part of the family, as their durability allows them to survive generations and generations of knocks and drops, unlike the latest electronic or battery-powered toy.

From lorries and the traditional spinning tops, to aeroplanes and ships, the options are endless because childrens’ wooden toys aren’t dictated to by fads or fashions. Put simply, they are victims of creative minds, ideas and imagination.


Why would any parent want a cheap, run-of-the-mill toy, when they could own a handcrafted wooden toy? If you’re thinking of investing in a wooden toy, make sure you know what you want, because there’s no harm in putting your chosen craftsman to work. Any wooden toy builder will gladly take on a personalised job, and its final polish to perfection will help it stand out from every other toy your child has seen in the past.


And it’s ‘personalisation’ that is so key when talking about toys for your child. You child is like no other, no-one even comes close to having the same character, personality or likes and dislikes. If your child is unique, why shouldn’t his or her toys be unique?


Sadly, unique toys have never fallen off conveyor belts and production lines, they are created, built, crafted with skill and care. The Ikea-effect is currently rampaging through the toy industry, and while some parents may be happy fuelling the mass-production of cheap but cheerful toys, others are willing to invest in something that is built for one, and built to last.


We believe the creation of beautiful, fun and engaging childrens' wooden toys and all everyone we talk to agrees!

Children's Wooden Toys Free Their Mind

Free your child's imagination with a wooden toy

Aside from their durability, reliability, and their capability of letting your child's imagination run wild, children's Wooden Toys don't need batteries to operate.

So, next time you think about investing money into the latest
IT-drenched toy fad, which will be yesterday's news by the time the batteries run out, consider buying a set of beautifully handcrafted children's wooden toys.

Unlike many toys, wooden toys don't rely on TV or film characters to appeal to children so they stay in fashion for far longer. Just imagine buying a set of toys that can be handed down through generations and generations!

Another great reason to give a child a wooden toy set is that it isn't linked to a popular or fashionable television or film character. So it's up to your child's wild imagination to give the toy a personality.

Too many of today's toys have pre-created characters and personalities, but wooden toys arrive loaded with the ability to be absolutely anyone. It is up to your child to exercise their imagination, which is so important at a young age and this helps them create their own toy over and over again.

And, if education is at the top end of your agenda for your child, wooden toys can be the perfect option. Not only do they give the brain a workout by requiring lively and active imaginations, they also can be bought as educational props.
For example, wooden puzzles or shape slot toys can really help to progress a child's hand and eye co-ordination.

And, their durability means that you won't be clinging on to the toy's receipt with the normal vice-like grip, in constant fear of a breakage and then the hassle of taking it back for a replacement.

But choice is important, and if you do decide to buy your child a wooden toy, make sure you buy something that matches the character of your child. If you can engage and excite your child on first sight of a range of beautiful children's wooden toys, the chances are the two will be inseparable for years to come!
