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
Suitable for children aged 3 yrs. to 7 yrs.
Animal figures are a bit of a classic of the toy collection. Your child will probably use them for all kinds of fun and imaginative role play. Maybe the animals live at the zoo or do tricks on the farm – or maybe they take off to the playground. The play stimulates the ability to come up with imaginative stories and put words to them.
Or maybe the animals enjoy being stacked, sorted, counted, or arranged according to their initials or the number of letters or syllables in their names. The animals are also ideal if your child is practising math and needs to work out how many animals you each get if you are three people and divide them between you.
The activity helps your child develop new skills and is wonderful for your child's well-being:
- Invites conversations with your child that can stimulate their academic knowledge.
- A lovely gift idea for your curious child.
- Great for group role play, where little ones practise finding their own place in the game and not always being in charge.
