What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

What makes this product special
Stretching, squishing, pulling, and squeezing with your hands magically improves your child’s concentration, even though it is in fact a type of distraction. For instance, when your child needs to sit and pay attention to a fairy tale, it’s wonderful to knead and fiddle with different types of clay, playdough, or sensory slime while listening.
For small children, playdough is mainly about the sensory experience. And bigger kids can use playdough to bring their wildest ideas to life. With playdough, your child can make anything from three-headed aliens to queens, kings, princes, and princesses.
We carry playdough of several different colours and types and different hardness levels. Firmer playdough stimulates your child’s proprioception because it offers more resistance when played with. For instance, firm playdough is ideal for making stop motion movies, because the shape holds well.
It’s a quiet activity that can help your child be still for just 5 more minutes - or help them deal with long train or car rides without wiggling about in their seat. Especially, for children who experience motor restlessness, fiddling with something that engages their hands, proprioception, imagination, and fine motor skills while sitting still can help them calm down.
You can get water-based or oil-based playdough, and each type has its own advantages. You can soften water-based playdough by adding a bit of water to it. But oil-based playdough tends to remain soft for several years.
Naturally, all the different types of playdough, sensory slime, and modelling clay we carry at ToyAcademy are CE-marked and approved in accordance with current toy safety regulations - just like all our other toys.
Helps develop important skills that are great for your child's well-being and ability to learn:
- Gives your child lots of opportunities to unleash their imagination.
- Helps your child improve fine motor skills.
- Strengthens your child's creativity.
