Find Good Wooden Toys
Our wooden toys are constructed of the finest quality Vermont hard rock maple accented with occasional contrasting tones of Pennsylvania cherry, birch, oak, and mahogany. They are finished with our own special nontoxic blend of hard-drying stains and sealers which protect and enhance the natural beauty of the woodgrain. Our toys are displayed both in toy shops and in galleries, and recommended by respected books and periodicals which site our creations’ furniture-quality craftsmanship and durability within the playspace. Our toys have been acclaimed both in museum exhibitions and art festivals for their originality and integrity of design. Many of our toys are designed to be ridden and all are created to endure the rugged play of several generations of children.
Vermont Wooden Toys celebrates 30 years of toymaking with the advent of the millennium. We enjoy the continued endorsement of our efforts from repeat patrons, as well as recommendation from teaching and childraising professionals such as the noted child psychologist and author, Dr. Fitzhugh Dodson.
