Welcome to Best Years

The Best Place to Find Toys for the Best Years of Our Lives.

We love toys. We love how they help imaginative play, and help cement friendships. We love how children create worlds around their toys and this is why we feel that toys should be as special as the children who play with them.

Not only do we think that we have the cutest toys around but they are uniquely suited to the needs of young children. Knitted and crochet toys bring a tactile quality to baby toys which is great for helping sensory development. They are also robust enough to stand up to even the most active of toddler play. And it helps that they are machine washable too!

Best Years have been specialising in making toys for over 10 years and claim to be the first people to introduce knitted dinosaurs to the world!

We are an ethical company and ethical sourcing is at the core of all our products so we found a great factory to make our first knitted toys for us, and now we have hundreds, still working with the same people we met all those years ago.

It matters to us that our toys are not only well designed, but well made and safe which is why we spend so much time making sure that quality stays at the core of our designs. Its why we don’t have bead eyes or any small parts on our toys.

We are an ethical company and our ethics extend from the people who make the toys through to the people who play with them and we never take shortcuts with safety.

or call us on 01327 262189 and we will be very happy to help

If you are a fairtrade producer or handmade cooperative looking for someone to sell your toys in the UK please email

Best Years are a UK toy company specialising in soft toys with a difference. We have a wide range of knitted, crochet and fair trade toys, and the very best range of knitted toy dinosaurs ever! We pride ourselves on the quality of our toys and of our service so please email
