β¨ Family-run since 2011
Little Sprout is a small, family-run toy shop for curious little humans: sturdy wooden toys, picture books worth rereading and plush friends that survive the washing machine. Everything is sorted by age, so you can find the right thing in about a minute.
Checked against EN 71 and ASTM F963 for the age printed on the box.
FSC-certified beech and birch, sanded by hand until it feels like a pebble.
Water-based, saliva-proof colors and food-grade beeswax finishes.
Paper, cardboard and a bit of string. Our mailers are compostable.
*Demo copy: Little Sprout is a fictional shop, so these claims show how a real toy shop could phrase its safety and materials promises. A real shop would link each toy to its test report.
Eight shelves, one for every kind of play. Tap one to filter the toys below.

π The first train, 2011
In 2011 Nell and Ravi Hartley spent a rainy month searching for one wooden train that would not fall apart in their son's hands. They never found it, so they opened a shop instead.
Today Little Sprout is still the two of them, a handful of neighbors who know every toy by name, and a test panel of four sticky-fingered children. We only stock what survives them.

βTwo years in and these are the only toys that still get used every single day. The edges are smooth, the colors have not chipped, and my four-year-old has built a hospital, a garage and something he calls the Moon Castle.β𧱠Rainbow Builder Blocks
βBarnaby arrived for our daughter's first birthday. He has been through the wash eleven times (I counted) and the stitching is perfect. Embroidered eyes meant I could finally stop worrying at nap time.βπ§Έ Barnaby the Bear
βPlain paper packaging, no plastic anywhere, and the track clicks together without a fight. One bridge peg was loose and the shop mailed a new one the next day, free. That is why we shop here.βπ Wooden Railway Starter Set
New arrivals, a toy of the month, ideas for rainy afternoons and a birthday note when it is time to shop again. No spam, and you can leave with one click.
The shop has a play corner, a wooden train table and a kettle. Bring the little one and try before you buy.
βΏStep-free and stroller-friendly. Flat entrance, wide aisles, a changing table by the play corner and room to park the stroller by the door.
