Special Needs Toys

Toys for children with special needs vary across many categories based on age, developmental ability, and the specific needs of each child — from ASD (autism) to ADHD to developmental delays. While we do not have a specific section of Special Needs toys, many of our toys can be used to engage children with specific needs, whether they are visual, tactile, focus/concentration, developmental, or any other special needs.

Our play experts are happy to brainstorm with you to find a toy that meets your child’s special needs and assist with the development and engagement.
