The Joys of Wood

By Peter - Last updated: Friday, May 28, 2010

There’s an old saying – they don’t make ‘em like they used to! That’s certainly true when it comes to toys! However, here at Toys and Learning we like to buck the trend and get back to basics – that’s why it’s such a delight to offer such a fantastic range of traditional wooded toys!

There is something magical about wood as a material! It feels much more solid than the plastic toys you get these days. It has character and that for me is what a great toy should be!

Wooden Train Set Arrives

By Peter - Last updated: Friday, September 4, 2009

During the last two years we, at T&L, have been checking feedback to see what children’s toys we should add to the educational toys we already have available. A wooden train set came top of the list.

We wondered if this really fitted our criteria of educational toys. At the end of the day our own understanding is that we should stock products that help children of all ages learn and develop as they explore their environment. Wooden train sets certainly help a young child learn about their immediate environment. We may not be able to remember ourselves but we do enjoy seeing children being amused for hours as they push the train around the track.
