Toys and Teachers is all about learning at home, school or play. For children, we sell toys that kids love and parents and grandparents approve. For teachers, we sell materials that make classroom management easier and help kids find the joy of learning from pre-K through high school. We have a wide, affordable selection at our retail store and available through our online store.
We're serious about play! Play is critical to a child's development! During play, children develop their unique intelligence. Imaginative play helps develop critical thinking and language skills. Manipulative toys help children develop manual dexterity, teach problem solving, and help kids discover their fabulous world. Puppets, puzzles, games, art supplies, craft kits, science labs, globes, plush toys, dolls, stickers, books, and wooden toys are a few of the ways children have use their imaginations. We search all over for the right kinds of toys help children invent and interact with each other and their world. We place a premium on child safety, sustainability, and products made in the U.S.A.
For teachers, we offer lesson books, unit plans, teacher references, posters, stickers, trimmers, pencils, grade books, and gifts. We have a great selection of materials for home schoolers and parents who want to provide extra lessons at home for their kids. We also carry educational materials stressing Christian values. Classroom teachers get a 10 percent discount on materials to be used in the classroom.
