Welcome to Toys Direct

Toys-Direct.biz are pleased to offer you a range of traditional Wooden Toys, Ragdolls, Puzzles and Gifts from Sri Lanka as well as one or two extra items of interest. We specialise in hand made rag dolls and stuffed animals, many of which are made using the traditional handloom cloth, which is a 100% cotton hand woven fabric, usually in strikingly bright colours.

Our traditional wooden toys and puzzles are manufactured using environmentally friendly woods. The main woods used are Rubberwood and Albizia Falcataria. The Rubberwood is cut down when the tree can no longer produce sufficient rubber, and its replacement will have already been planted so that the production of rubber can continue. The Albizia Falcataria is one of the fastest growing trees in the world. After its useful life as a wind breaker on the hill plantations of Central Sri Lanka, it is harvested.

Non-toxic paints are used on all our colourful wooden toys, many of which are hand painted. This means that all our toys tend to vary slightly. We regularly visit all our external producers at their factories and work premises to ensure quality and conformity. No children are employed and all the workers are paid wages according to set norms.

As all our toys come from Sri Lanka we continue to be committed to supporting the children of Sri Lanka through the charitable trust SwimLanka www.swimlanka.lk Almost 2 years after the tsunami, the children, many of whom we have supported, have yet again become victims as a result of the recent violence. This Christmas we are offering 2 limited edition sets of rag dolls, the proceeds of which will benefit these displaced children on the East coast of the island.
