Le Toy Van: Beautiful Wooden Toys Worth Keeping Forever
Le Toy Van: Beautiful Wooden Toys Worth Keeping Forever
There’s a certain kind of toy that doesn’t end up in the donation bin six months after the birthday party. It’s the one that’s still on the shelf when your kid is five, that younger siblings fight over, that somehow looks better with a little wear on it. Le Toy Van makes those toys.
Founded in the UK and beloved by parents worldwide, Le Toy Van has been crafting premium wooden toys from FSC-certified wood since 1995. Every piece uses non-toxic, water-based paints, meets the highest international safety standards, and is designed to develop real skills — balance, coordination, fine motor skills, imaginative play — without a screen in sight.
For Portland and PNW families who value quality over quantity and would rather have fewer, better things in the playroom, Le Toy Van is a natural fit. Here’s everything we carry at Posh Baby.
The Le Toy Van Collection at Posh Baby
Classic Wooden Rocking Horse — $169.95
This is the one that ends up in the corner of the living room and becomes part of the furniture — in the best possible way. Traditional in design with detailed artwork and gold accents finished in child-safe paint, it’s made from FSC-certified wood and built to handle enthusiastic riders from 12 months up. It helps develop balance and mobility, but honestly, kids just love it because it’s a horse.
Wooden Rainbow Ride-On Trike — $169.95
A sleek white and dark blue wooden trike with colorful windmill wheels that spin as your toddler rides. Easy-to-steer handlebars, a comfortable seat, and a design that looks like it belongs in a Scandinavian design magazine. Made from FSC-certified wood with non-toxic paints, it develops balance and coordination from 18 months up. Also: those windmill wheels are genuinely delightful.
Retro Wooden Doll Stroller — $99.95
A traditional wooden doll pram in soft pastel pink, cream, and white with heart and lace motifs. It has a retractable hand-sewn canopy, a soft padded mattress, and a removable changing bag — scaled perfectly for dolls and soft toys 30–35 cm. FSC-certified wood, rubber-grip wheels, water-based non-toxic paints. For the little one who wants to push their baby around just like you push them. Ages 3+.
Shopping Grocery Trolley & Bag — $129.95
An award-winning wooden shopping trolley with two internal compartments, a fabric storage level underneath, a chalkboard panel for writing shopping lists, and a detachable reusable fabric bag. It’s the kind of toy that sparks hours of imaginative play — and if your toddler has ever insisted on “helping” at New Seasons, they’re going to love having their own. Ages 3+.
Sensory Activity Table — $169.95
Six activities in one compact table: bead maze, shape sorter, xylophone, scratchboard, turning gears and cogs, and a spinning rattle. FSC-certified wood, non-toxic paints, and a size (20.5" W x 13.8" D x 19.7" H) that fits in any corner of a nursery or playroom. It’s the toy that buys you 20 minutes of focused independent play while you drink your coffee while it’s still hot. Ages 18 months+.
Woodland Stacking Forest Animals & Bag — $19.95
Ten chunky wooden animal blocks — fox, rabbit, hedgehog, bear, mouse, tortoise, squirrel, deer, and bird — with a cotton storage bag. FSC-certified, plastic-free, non-toxic paints. Develops dexterity and fine motor skills, and doubles as the most charming shelf decoration in the nursery. At $19.95, it’s also the easiest gift decision you’ll make all year. Ages 18 months+.
