About Us

At Nic Nac Noo we are proud to provide our customers with very high quality toys that help children to learn while having fun. Children discover and learn through play. We source products that encourage children to be active and to use their imagination. We do our best to find products that stimulate all senses and we only choose toys that promote meaningful play.

Our toys are made of natural materials like wood or cotton. The paints and dyes are safe and non toxic. The wood used is either rubberwood which is recycled from rubber trees that are no longer able to produce latex or it is sourced from sustainable forests. We also have a collection of organic soft toys and plant dye art materials. We do not supply plastic or battery operated toys as we care about the environment and we want our children and grandchildren to live on a healthy planet.

We aim to offer toys that are of a very high quality and design and therefore durable. We hope you’ll find them so beautiful that you want to keep them and pass them on to siblings and maybe the next generation, too.

Most of our toys are sourced from Europe and are made under the highest ethical standards. Most of our wooden toys are manufactured in Germany, a lot of them are hand crafted. Toys made outside the European Union comply with European Safety, Social and Environmental Standards.

We work hard on providing a great customer service and aim for 100% customer satisfaction.

A lot of our toys have won prestigious awards for design and play value.

At Nic Nac Noo we believe in toys that

  • encourage play that aids in the child’s development on an intellectual, emotional and physical level.
  • are made in a humane and safe working environment.
  • are made with as little impact on our environment as possible. We reuse as much packaging as we can. That is why you may receive some beautiful toys posted in some not so beautiful packaging. We try not to print much but when we do we use the eco printer www.bigskyprint.com. We have also signed up to the 100% green energy provider www.goodenergy.co.uk who produce all their electricity from renewable sources.

Toy parties:

Are you looking to raise money for your play group, your child’s sports team, or do you just fancy a fun time with your pals? Whatever the reason, you can talk to us about holding a toy party and we’ll let you know about how you can raise money, or save money on our toys.


Customer pictures:

A big "Hooray!" and "Thank you!" for all our customers that have sent us their pictures with the purchased toys 'in action'. It is great to see the toys bringing a smile to childrens' faces. If you want to show us and others how much joy your little one has with its new toy then feel free to send us a picture and details to info@nicnacnoo.com.

A great toy for young kids. It is good quality and easy to make - very young kids will need help making it but once the tricky bits are done they can move it to anywhere easily.

I decided to throw out all little tiny toys and give my girls (1,3 and 5) this shop. And they love it. Bought loads of wooden fruit and other products. I like it myself! I like the plain color of the shop. All the pink and red of their old toys were hurting my eyes

Bought as a Christmas gift for 2 & 3 yrs sibling boys. Parents and children love it. It's sturdy and can stand a bit of abuse as it's wooden not plastic. Parents plan to buy more to add to it.
