It's no secret that dinosaurs are amongst the best toys for kids. Dinosaurs are giant, prehistoric creatures that capture kids' imaginations in all age groups and continue to be a popular toy choice.
Their young imaginations are set on fire as they happily play with really cool dinosaur toys, roaring away while roaming around the house and creating the funniest dinosaur conversations.
Your dinosaur crazy kids can probably tell you the difference between all the species and recite the names of every dinosaur that ever existed! Brontosaurus, Triceratops, Spinosaurus, Stegosaurus, Pterodactyl, Parasaurolophus, Velociraptor, and you can't forget the good old Tyrannosaurus Rex.
But as a parent, it's probably been a long while since you've thought about dinosaurs, let alone remember all their long names.
So, how do you choose the best dinosaur toys for your kids?
Things to consider when buying dinosaur toys
When you're considering buying dinosaur toys, the first thing to know is they're fun for every child – dinosaurs don't discriminate!
Picking a suitable toy will depend on your child. Consider their age, cognitive development, and taste in toys and listen to any dinosaur names they're excitedly talking about non-stop.
With so many dinosaur toys to choose from, you can opt for dinosaur puzzles, playsets, figurines, memory games, dinosaur skeleton kits and much more.
The best part is that dinosaur toys will never go out of style, so your child’s collection can grow with them. Their dinosaurs can also be handed down as your child's imagination grows and tastes change.
Safety
Our range of wooden and felt dinosaur toys is created with gentle shapes and safe materials for children. Even when they're flying them around the house or stomping them across tables, you can rest assured there are no sharp edges that will leave big dinosaur chomp marks.
Creativity
Dinosaur toys inspire imagination. Your child will create all sorts of scenes and conversations from the mighty T-Rex going into battle, Triceratops flying around overhead or Brontosaurus gently nibbling away at treetops. Their interest in history is sparked as they strive to know about each dinosaur, searching for their all-time favourite.
Collaboration
Don't be surprised if dinosaur toys are invited to tea parties, join zoo animals, or get tucked up in bed next to a favourite teddy bear. Dinosaurs are an awesome versatile toy that will be taken anywhere and invited to play with other toys. The scope of a toy dinosaur's world will go as far as your child's imagination.
Age
There are dinosaur toys for all ages, from toddlers to older children. Adorable baby dinosaurs are cute and friendly and loved by younger children. Expand their imagination with dinosaur playsets or challenge them with dinosaur puzzles. Older children love unearthing dinosaur bones and discovering what they've found.
