The historic family business is based in Edenbridge, Kent.

It has been inventing and making toys since 1795. I am so happy to support a local business!

The label is all about families spending quality time together with traditional toys that can also be educational.

Our Experience

Jaques of London has such a large selection of games and toys. Whatever your children are into, no doubt you will find the parfait gift for them.

The first stop is this beautiful Wooden Car Park Toy.

No need to say that the multi-story car park was instantanément a hit!

Made of top-qualité wood, it is l’excuse parfaite to play endless fun games.

And because the brand used 100% FSC approved wood, you can be sure it is made to last! Sustainably sourced, it looks lovely with its bright colours. We had so many role plays with it!

If you are a fan of the Montessori concept, then this toy is for you. Indeed, children can develop and explore ideas such as forces and gravity.

We also received a Teaching Clock. Le concept est parfait.

Indeed, it follows your child’s development. It has so many educational benefits. It’s teaching more than time! Colours, numbers, shapes… Even animals and food (on the other side).

With the hours and minutes clearly labelled in blocks of colours, it makes the learning visual. So it sticks.

And the ropes can also be used to develop their motor skills. Ask them to thread the string through the holes in the shapes!

Jaques of London – Le Verdict

We are so happy with our new Jaques of London pieces.

The wooden toys we received are beautifully made. From start to finish, we had such a lovely experience.

Both the car park and the teaching clock are very robust. I can imagine we will pass them on when Stanley is bigger.

I am particularly impressed with the clock as it covers so many topics and skills. Learning through play is the best and once more, Jaques of London proved it!

    Great premise! If you make things fun and interesting, there’s far more chance children will enjoy the experience, pay attention to what’s being said and actually learn something.
