Why Wooden Toys Come with a Higher Price Tag?
While it’s understandable to balk at a higher price tag when considering wooden toys, the cost reflects multiple underlying factors, material cost, craftsmanship, safety, sustainability, design and longevity. If you prioritise durability, non-toxic materials, an aesthetic you’ll enjoy for years, and the idea of “playthings that last”, then paying more for a well-made wooden toy often makes sense. Conversely, if cost is the dominant factor and you’re fine with replacing broken or worn plastic toys frequently, then the cheaper alternative may suffice.
