Learning Center at Growing Tree Toys
Welcome to the Learning Center at Growing Tree Toys! We know that providing toys for growing children is more than just a sales transaction – we are introducing them to the wonderful world of play, which is not only essential to their development, but keeps them learning in fun and productive ways through their interaction with toys.
And while we dedicate ourselves to finding the best educational toys available, we know that parents, grandparents, and other gift-givers may need more information on toys, their unique benefits, and play and learning. Our Learning Center is designed to be an informative resource about the toys we offer and their importance to the healthy, happy, and safe development of children. In addition to further information on the Developmental Benefits and Types of Play that we assign to EVERY product on our website, the Learning Center includes a section on toy safety, a variety of buying guides and toy resources, information on play, and explanations of the toy awards we highlight on our website.
We know searching through thousands of toys to find the perfect toy – a safe toy that not only addresses a child’s developmental needs, but is entertaining and engaging enough to stay out of the closet – is not an easy task. We hope that our Learning Center is the perfect compliment to the thoughtful selection of toys we offer on our website, making the decision of what toy to buy a little easier with helpful information and valuable resources. We hope that you find this information useful, and we thank you for shopping at Growing Tree Toys!

Our Resources section includes all of the information you will need to understand the unique aspects of our site, which will help you find the perfect toy for which you are searching. In addition to explanations of the
Developmental Benefits and
Types of Play icons that are included with every product on our website, we also include descriptions of the different
toy awards that we feature on the website, providing more value to the concept of “award-winning toys.” As we add more exciting features to our website that further assist with the toy-buying process, we will include their information here!
Before a toy is fun or educational, it has to be safe. The safety of the wonderful toys and playthings that we offer is an important component of our toy selection process – we carefully assess each product on our website using a number of important criteria, many of which revolve around the safety and durability of the toys. Our comprehensive
Toy Safety section helps to answer important questions about the safety of our toys, while providing valuable resources to concerned shoppers.
After decades in the toy business, we certainly know a lot about toys! While we often get to share this knowledge with our in-store customers, this toy wisdom was always difficult to share online – until now! We are happy to offer suggestions and advice for toy buyers through the information provided in our
Toy Buying Guides section. We will continue to add more guides and other resources to this section, so be sure to check back when you need assistance purchasing a toy!
Every child learns through play. And, toys are a very important part of play! In addition to selling toys that foster positive play experiences, we also feel it is very important to promote the necessity of play to the healthy development of children. Often times, children do not have enough time to play, especially the unstructured play that is important to their growth. We want to let everyone know that it is OK – it is better than OK - to let kids “just play!” Find out why in
this section!
