Kids toys are big business – hence the tremendous volume of tacky looking plastic toys on the market. In decades of old, toys were not only given with love, they were made with love by toy makers who loved to delight with their work. Magnificent wooden doll houses and other hand crafted wooden toys were plentiful but these days it can be hard to find truly beautiful wooden toys amid the plethora of mass produced items.

If you’re looking for beautifully crafted wooden toys you’ll be delighted by the offerings of European toy designers and manufacturers Le Toy Van. We absolutely love Le Toy Van toys. It is one of the very few brands outside of our own Hip Kids brand we sell through our online store.

Their lovely pink and white Sophie’s Doll House stands 670 mm high and has three floors and a removable roof. Detailed décor makes this dolls house stand out from the crowd.

Browse through our range of Le Toy Van toys and you’ll find plenty of well crafted toys to keep little minds busy including a honeybake tea set, Honeybake baking set, dolly dress up wardrobe and a stunning Belle Fairy Castle. Of course, dolls aren’t every kid’s cup of tea. If it’s clear that your toddler would prefer plundering the high seas to dining with dolls why not let his or her imagination set sail with the beautifully detailed Barbarossa Pirate Ship? Quality wooden toys that are well cared for can last for years and be passed down from child to child, and from one generation to the next, making them great value for money. If you want quality toys that will last, you’ll have trouble going past some of the lovely pieces in the Le Toy Van range.
