What parents
have to say…

  • "What a great idea for a toy shop. Good quality products sourced from all over, but twinned with play philosophy and, weirdly (but it works) an anti-consumer ethos… "

    Kristin I.

  • "The 100 toys list, and all that it offers parents in navigating the massive toy market, is wonderful; and the ethos of keeping things simple and even sometimes making rather than buying toys and resources is what makes 100 toys my preferred online toy shop. Their focus is not about maximising sales or manipulative marketing to children and/or parents. Refreshingly, their focus is about respecting play and the reality of what truly enhances this. It is obviously a labour of love so thank you for this lovely resource and fair prices on the toys you sell. I will continue to be a customer!"

    Anna R.

  • "Thank you for giving me the confidence to move away from plastic and the more obvious toys to things which undoubtedly give more quality entertainment and enhance my child's imaginative play!"

    Laura

Are you a radical?

If you're a radical like us, you sometimes think about doing things completely differently. 100 Toys has always been about the learning that happens away from toys and planned activities.
