Wood toys that can be pushed, pulled or otherwise made to move and ideal for the toddler. Walking toys, for instance, can be used to help the child balance while on two feet, but can also provide mental stimulation and physical exercise as well.

Puzzles and games can also be great wood toys. These are often classified as “educational toys” because they are a great way to stimulate the mind of a child.

Similarly, games can also be of tremendous benefit for a child, having been proven to increase a child’s mental and social skills. They are the ideal way to help your child learn to process information in a quick and decisive manner, as well as teaching them about good and bad decisions and independent thinking.
