INFORMATION ON WOODEN TOYS: All wooden toys are not created equal. And the category of wooden toys is quite varied - from wooden puzzles, wooden cars to a wonderful wooden kitchen. But wood involves craftsmanship and we take picking toys for the wooden toy category a little more seriously than our other categories. They have to be splinter free, have great paint jobs and very sturdy construction. For example, we love the wooden blocks from Melissa & Doug because of the gently rounded edges.
