WOW Developmental Toys

Ages 18 months+

The WOW line of toys is phenomenal. Sturdily built plastic people interact with sports cars, camper vans, airplanes, motorbikes, boats and tons of other vehicles! Made entirely in the UK, these toys are great fun and impossible to destroy. They also aid in sensory stimulation, social interaction and role-playing imagination!

AMBI water toys

We couldn't resist buying these re-vamped toys from our youth! Remember those birds you fill with water and then sing when you blow through them? Well here they are in more vibrant colours and built to last. We also have a duck family that floats in the water and all the babies fit inside the momma duck for easy transport!

Ridley's Classic Games Compendium

Ages 4 years +

We absolutely love this gorgeous set of everything you need to play classic games. The set includes: Jacks, Marbles, Pick-up Sticks, A Yo-Yo, Dominoes, and a set of playing cards

Create Your Own Puzzle

Ages 3 years +

For the budding artist! It's a blank puzzle that your draw on yourself! Fun as a gift in and of itself, and also great to get your little ones to create the puzzle and give it to others as a gift!

Scramble Squares

Nothing has kept this bookseller more entertained (or more frustrated) than trying to solve these puzzle squares. These colourful puzzles come in all sorts of packages, from dinosaurs and tractors to fairies and butterflies and are also great for adults! Unscramble the nine square pieces by perfectly matching the pictures on the squares' edges, forming a large square. Can you unscramble the squares without scrambling your brain?

Potato Chip Science

Not technically a toy, we know, but we love it! The bag contains an experimental world cooked for kids who like science, and snacks, and snacking on science. This kit features 29 activities based entirely on the planet's most miraculous munchie! We bet you can't try just one!

Air Puck Hockey

Now you can play arcade-style hockey at home! This hockey set is a great tabletop game, but it will also work on any other smooth surface. The game comes with two strikers, a puck, and cardboard goals. The puck hovers on a cushion of air and is equipped with soft foam bumpers, so it won’t damage walls or table legs. ($17.95)
