We take a look at the top dinosaur toys for kids!!
All kids love dinosaurs! When you start a conversation about dinosaurs with your dino-crazy son or daughter, make sure you have a lot of time to spare. T-rex talk can give you and your child many precious (and entertaining) minutes together, bonding over how big a T-rex is or how scary a Velociraptor can be.
There’s something simply fascinating about these majestic prehistoric creatures. Maybe it’s because they’re no longer around for us to see in real-life or perhaps it’s just their unimaginable size and how interesting they look. There are dozens of children’s books, shows, and toys that feature these fierce creatures. No wonder the movie Jurassic Park has made millions at the box office. If you’re looking for dinosaur toys for kids, whether for your own child or as a gift, we’ve come up with a great list for you.
Do you have a favourite dinosaur toys for kids? We do, they are listed below.
1)Schleich Dinosaur Figures
For excellent quality with realistic features, Schleich is number one on our list of dinosaur toys for kids. This brand makes figures of all animals, from whales to gorillas, to all kinds of dinosaurs. Is your child suddenly obsessed with a cryolophosaurus and you’re wondering where you can buy one? Don’t worry, Schleich has it! All their animal figures are hand-painted with lifelike details.
These are very well-made that a collection of Schleich figures can be left on a shelf just to be admired, but they’re even better when played with. These open-ended dinosaur toys encourage creativity, imagination, and role play. It’s important to note that Schleich figures are relatively expensive, especially when compared to other dinosaur toys. However, we genuinely believe they are definitely worth every penny.

We love dinosaur toys for kids that give kids a break from screen time. This handy, multi-functional toy combines magnetic toys, a whiteboard, and a blackboard in one compact dinosaur toy. One side offers a magnetic board where you can stick any of the 118 dinosaur-related pieces, including different kinds of dinosaurs and environmental-themed pieces like flowers, trees, and bugs. The other side offers a blackboard where your child can draw and scribble. Chalk is also included in the package. This comes in a wooden box that provides easy clean-up and storage and also makes it easy to bring around. Definitely a great addition to your collection of dinosaur toys.
