Nesting Stones
Big enough to stand on and shaped like a set of nested hearts, these stepping stones turn balance practice into a proper adventure across the lounge floor or garden. Five graduated heart-shaped stones, available in a bright rainbow palette or a soft pastel colourway, can be laid out as a wobbly path, stacked into a tower, or arranged into a game of "the floor is lava however the imagination of the day demands.
Children step from heart to heart, adjusting their balance with every stone, building confidence with each safe landing. Because the stones graduate in size, the path can be made easier or trickier depending on the order they're laid in, smaller, closer-together hearts for a real balance challenge, or larger ones spaced out for younger or more cautious steppers. It's active, imaginative, and endlessly rearrangeable.
What's Included:
- 5 x Heart-shaped stepping stones, graduated in size
- Available in Rainbow or Pastel colour-way
What the OT Says:
I use stepping stones like these often in therapy, because balance work is one of the most functional skills a child can practise, and it rarely feels like "work" to them. Stepping from stone to stone challenges a child's core stability and postural control, as their body constantly makes small adjustments to stay upright, this is the same system that supports sitting still at a desk and staying steady while running or climbing.
The graduated sizes give me an easy way to grade the activity. Larger, closer stones offer a gentler introduction for younger or less confident children, while smaller, more spread-out stones raise the challenge for a child ready to work on single-leg balance and weight-shifting. This kind of graded difficulty is exactly how I like to structure therapy activities so a child experiences success while still being pushed a little further each time.
Beyond balance, stepping from stone to stone also involves motor planning, as a child has to look ahead, judge distance, and sequence their steps before moving a skill that carries over into general coordination and body awareness. And because the stones can be laid out in endless configurations, they invite imaginative, open-ended play that keeps children engaged far longer than a single "correct" way of using them ever would.
Let customers speak for us
I bought this for my son as a level up from stacking cups. The cars add a fun element and I love that he can play with them on the train track too!
My 20 month old loves this shape sorter! It’s stimulating and looks great on his toy shelf.
I bought this ice cream counter for my granddaughter's 2nd birthday. She and her 5 year old sister absolutely LOVE playing with this. Their mother's reaction was 'WHAT a hit!' The younger one loves to stack and place, the colourful and sturdy pieces, in out of the slots of the counter and this will develop into proper pretend play as she gets older. I can see both girls playing with their ice cream counter for years to come as it will have a long shelf life due to both the quality of the parts and the play interest for a broad age group of children.
Innovative and a GREAT idea to level up the bath toy game!
I bought this outdoor easel for my son, and it has been an amazing addition to our garden playtime. The quality is excellent, and it's sturdy enough to withstand active play outdoors. My son loves spending hours drawing, painting, and using his imagination.
The easel was easy to assemble and has plenty of space for creative activities. It's also easy to clean, which is a huge bonus for messy art projects! I love that it encourages creativity, keeps him entertained, and gives him a fun way to enjoy the outdoors.
I highly recommend this outdoor easel to any parent looking for a durable, fun, and educational gift for their child.
I love using this in speech therapy as an incentive. The children find it very exciting to lift the discs off the table with the wand. Strong magnet.
I will order from Tiny tree toys again, their service was very professional and friendly.
A really lovely cuddly bedtime cloth - my grandson loves it :-) Good tactile features included that engage baby's senses and provide comfort.
All three of my girls are loving this simple addition to the outside play area. Seems quite strong as I absolutely launch them. Love the fact that the height is adjustable. Great product - Happy.
We absolutely loved the gorgeous gift that we received of the cutest black & white flower bouquet with Afr & Eng gift tags for Mother's Day of 2026!
It was simply lovely and só spot on!
Thank you Tiny Tree Toys! ⚘️
I absolutely love this puzzle, and have purched multiple ones as gifts. It is well crafted, and the wood is neatly rounded off. I'll be honest I've never played the game guidlines included, and rather use it as a catalyst in my creative processes. I love the fact that there are no rules to this, and the opportunity to use it as an expressive tool. My tiny human loves it too, and can play endlessly with captivated imagination.
Absolutely love the wooden stacking toys, I am trying to move away from plastic and purchase better quality educational toys for my baby and this is the perfect shop for that!
Great addition to our light-box and there are more than one of each letter in this set. This gives you more word building opportunities.
What a great fine motor beading set. They give nice resistance when children push them together and pull them apart, which helps strengthen the fingers and improve hand control.
