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 ages 3 yrs. to 8 yrs.
All over the world and across different cultures, people tell stories – and even with the same themes. Telling and understanding a story with a beginning and an end is an important skill to have. That skill can be practised by telling a story again and again.
Physical props can be a great help in teaching children to understand stories and storytelling. This delightful play set lets your child experiment with storytelling. Also, it's a very good way to bring a fairy tale or story to life. The storyteller does not get hidden behind a book but gets to be active and in close contact with the little listeners, who get to join in the story instead of being passive.
Great for story telling together at home and in kindergartens and nurseries – or for people with special needs, such as dementia.
This activity supports important skills which help support your child's well-being and ability to learn:
- Excellent for group role play, where little ones get to practise finding their own place in the game and not always being in charge.
- Inspires your child to practise social skills, such as being able to wait their turn, lose, trade toys, or listen, being patient and tolerant, and making an effort to read the situation.
