For this year’s UKMUMS.TV Baby & Pre-School Awards, our mums have been putting early years toys to the test!
We all know that there is no shortage of toys on the market, but not all toys are created equally! Have you tried holding a young child’s attention for more than a few moments? Toys for small children have to be super entertaining, appealing to young eyes and of course easy to clean. Of course, if they’re able to support a child’s early development, that’s a massive plus! With so many boxes to tick, where do you start? You’ll be pleased to hear that our mums and their little ones have been busy putting top toys to the test, and we can now announce the winner in this category as:

What our tester said: “My young children love this product! It’s perfect for getting children to engage in water play. It can be used indoors without water too, as a “zoo” as my son told me!”
