These Rocking Animals
make great toys for young adventurous animal lovers who would like to go
on a safari or for a ride. Feel confident that you are encouraging your
child's creativity by providing a toy that will stimulate imaginative
play.
Handcrafted by a local
artisan and made of solid wood in the
GMB Family Workshop,
every animal has it’s own personality. We buy our wood from small local
lumber mills in the greater Toronto area and make everything here in
Richmond Hill, Canada. We support green living and environmental
sustainability by only making wooden toys that will last for decades and
become family heirlooms.
Colour has been
added with acrylic paints or analine dyes. They have been finished with
a water-based lacquer. As they are played with, each toy will develop a
unique patina.
If you are looking for
that special baby shower gift, first birthday toy or are decorating your
nursery, look no further.
GMB Toys
has something for you. We definitely have something for your Little Girl
and we also have
Manly Toys for Little Boys.
Most of our Riding
Toys are built for toddlers and up. They make fabulous baby gifts for
that someone special and can be ridden by the time that a child is about
10 moths old. The "Toddler Size" rocking toy will receive lots of love
and be ridden till a child is about 6 years old at which point it will
become a beautiful decorative piece of art as well as a family heirloom.
Many of our happy customers leave them on display in their family or
living room.
A few of our
Rocking Animals are "Full Size" and are appropriate for ages 3 to 99!
When they are no longer ridden regularly, they can move to recreation
rooms where they are ridden at parties and family get-togethers. Others
continue to live in the bedrooms of their loving owners and become extra
seating for friends and a place to hang
your clothes at the end of a long day.
If you are interested in one of our
Rocking Animals, we would be happy to build one for you. Contact us well
in advance of the time that you would like your toy, since we usually
work on a 3 month lead time.
If you do not see
the Rocking Toy of your dreams in our Gallery, then contact us and ask
about our custom design services. We also do commissions.
If you wish to make an heirloom toy of
your own, then consider
ordering one of our Woodworking Plans.
