American Tender Leaf Toys make toys from surplus rubberwood from latex production in Indonesian forests. The toys are produced at a family-owned factory in Indonesia, where the Tender Leaf Toys team spend two months each year developing toys and working alongside local villagers. For every tree felled, a new one is planted. Tender Leaf Toys has been recognised by the ICTI Ethical Toy Program for their efforts to make the entire production process more socially and environmentally sustainable. The toys are hand-painted and manually packed in recycled cardboard, and Tender Leaf Toys has almost managed to completely eliminate the use of single-use plastic.
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

Measures 26,5 x 21,5 cm.Suitable for children aged 2 yrs. to 4 yrs.
Doing puzzles strengthens your child's fine motor skills and patience. Also, putting the pieces together is a good way to get better at understanding how the single pieces form a whole and envisioning where each part needs to be placed in the big picture.
Being able to register something visually and envision what's missing from a whole is important for learning geometry and math as well as comprehending how sums, sentences, or even a piece of knitting, among other things, are made up of patterns and sequences.
Many puzzles have a special theme or topic, which you can talk about while doing it. This is a great way to strengthen your child's vocabulary about e.g. animals, flags of the world, or our universe.
This activity supports essential skills which help support your child's well-being and ability to learn:
- Develops hand-eye coordination, a skill we rely on for example when we throw, catch, or kick the ball that comes flying towards us in PE class, when we cut in a straight line line with a pair of scissors, or when we need to pour a glass of water without spilling.
