What's our story? we're Scott and Matilda, father daughter duo teamed up with a passion and commitment to sustainability and quality open ended toys. Designed and meticulously handcrafted in the heart of the Yarra Valley Australia, every toy is born from recycled wood that would have otherwise been discarded. Sustainability isn't just a concept for us; its a practice woven into the very fabric of our work ​ Welcome to Once a Tree where every piece echoes the past and promise of a vibrant future. Once a Tree Toys have always and will always be designed and handcrafted in the Yarra Valley Victoria Educational value Once a Tree wooden toys encourage the development of essential skills, including fine motor skills, problem-solving, and hand-eye coordination. They stimulate a child's imagination and creativity. Unlike some electronic toys with short-lived educational value, wooden toys offer timeless learning opportunities. They foster imaginative play and encourage kids to explore and learn at their own pace. Safe & Durable Our wooden toys are free from harmful chemicals and toxins, making them a safe choice for children. Parents can rest easy knowing their kids are playing with non-toxic materials. Most of our products are made of a salvaged hardwood and will be able to withstand years of play, even in the hands of enthusiastic and energetic little ones. This durability ensures that wooden toys can be passed down from one generation to the next, reducing waste and saving money in the long run. Environmentally Friendly Open Ended Play Our wooden toys are specifically designed taking into consideration the types of recycled timber we are able to accumulate. The natural timber we use are offcuts or salvaged materials that would otherwise end up burnt or in landfill. We are always looking for ways to reduce the environmental impact, always ensuring we look for Australian made products to source. Once a Tree wooden toys promote open-ended play, allowing children to use their imagination to create a wide range of scenarios and stories. This type of play helps develop problem-solving skills, creativity, and critical thinking. Unlike many electronic toys that dictate the play experience, wooden toys rely on a child's creativity, providing hours of entertainment without the need for batteries or screens. Have a question?
