Wooden Toys

Wooden toys have a timeless, classic feel about them. In a world with disposable plastic toys which break before a year is out, wooden toys are crafted to survive. They are heirloom pieces to be handed from generation to generation.

There is also a style to wooden toys which can’t be matched by plastic. They look good in a room, they feel like they belong in a toy chest and played with on rainy days.

The feel of wooden toys, in your hand, is a feeling that brings back memories or gives new ones to your children. Playing with the wooden farm animals, or chugging a wooden train around the tracks, is a timeless feeling My Happy Helpers can give to your family.

>A report released by Planet Ark’s Make It Wood, entitled “Wellness + Wood = Productivity”, found that exposure to wooden items resulted in “increased rates of learning, improved test results, concentration levels and attendance, reduced impacts of ADHD”.

We invite you to our store, 12-16 Micro Circuit, Dandenong South to browse the range, feel them in your hands and have a play. We’re open 10 am to 2 pm Monday to Friday.

Or you can certainly order from our website. View the toys below, click around into our gross motor function toys and other pages, fill your virtual shopping cart with some quality wooden toys and have a sensational Christmas.

Buy local and help local artists out, and because it is local you won’t have massive delays with overseas shipping.

We believe that the wooden toys we sell are great value for money. You can find a bag of plastic farm animals in a $2 store, but they won’t have the same value, nor the same feel to them as our wooden farm animals set.

We believe that children will cherish our toys far more than they would the cheaper alternatives. They will become heirlooms, cherished art items displayed on shelves, played with more and loved more.

Wooden toys are also environmentally friendly. Wood is a renewable resource, trees can be planted and grown again.

We have fun toys and educational toys and developmental toys to choose from.

Wooden animals, such as an Australian animal set, farmyard animals you can stack on top of each other, even a Tyrannosaurus Rex!

Have a look at our wooden train sets! A fairy Town train set, Farm Train set, even a train whistle!

You can browse our range of colourful wooden puzzles, or stacking toys too.

The range of wooden toys, colourful, hardy and long-lasting, is incredible.

Growing up, learning about the world using your senses, is essential for the development of our youngsters. Not only does playing with toys help develop fine motor skills and creativity, but the tactile nature of toys can also teach as well.

The feel of plastic or metal is different to the feeling of wood. Wood is soft and warm, and has a grainy feel to it. Little kids want to touch and play and, of course, stick in their mouths.

My Happy Helpers has wooden sensory toys for all ages to pick up and feel, weigh them in your hand, and listen to the sound of the coloured fillings. We also have creative play wooden scoops for sensory play.

Take playtime to another level with wooden sensory toys, thanks to My Happy Helpers.

The cornerstone toy of many a fun day, wooden blocks can be anything your little mind can conjure: a tall tower, a castle battlement, perhaps a rocketship to the stars. Kids can feel the different weights of the block, play with different colours of blocks, build things and then smash them down and build again.

My Happy Helpers has plain wooden blocks, colourful blocks, wooden dinosaur blocks, and even wooden blocks with magnets. Learn building skills, creative skills and more from a young age. Learning through play is the best way to learn.

Wooden toys for babies are far more healthy than plastic toys. Toys will inevitably end up in a baby’s mouth., Wooden toys have natural antibacterial qualities. They have a porous surface, so moisture and germs are absorbed into the wood and eventually die. In plastic, however, the germs stay on the surface and multiply.

Buy some colourful wooden toys for your baby to learn about shapes and colours, and textures. Train their fine motor skills to grip odd shapes and hold spheres and cubes.

And feel safe knowing their toys will not breed germs after the baby has a chew on them.

Toddlers are learning how to use their bodies, and how to think through problems. GIving them wooden blocks to build with, or wooden peg games to figure out what shape goes where or what colour fits where, is excellent for building their minds and muscles.

Wooden toys are harder to break and will last longer than plastic toys. They’re also good for the environment and are made from renewable materials.

Feed your young one's imagination with colourful, wooden toys, and you will be doing good for the world at the same time.

There is something magical about wooden toys. You can see the craftsmanship, and feel the grain of the wood. It is something other materials just can't give you.

You can also crash wooden cars into each other, build castles and towers with wooden blocks, create wooden marble runs with wooden bridges and tunnels, solve puzzles, and so much more.

Wooden toys for kids are special in a way that plastic can’t be. They last longer and often can be kept as keepsakes, or heirlooms, handed down to the next generation of playful kids.
