Montessori style toys

[~ Mylitta ~]

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone knew where you could get Montessori style toys for a decent price? I'm looking for toys aimed at the toddler age, so things like big wooden puzzles, those toys that have three sticks on a base that hold different colored rings, and things like that.

I've found some on ebay, but even on there they seem rather expensive. I have a feeling that these sorts of educational toys might just be expensive from everywhere...

You can get the wooden toys and etc from Bright Bugs. It is pretty expensive though.

Have a look on the Ikea website, they have a few wooden toys that might be suitable and not too expensive

LCB toys and decor AKA as Chatterbox toys has an awesome range of wooden toys and puzzles! (They are on my facebook page and have a website)

I second Melissa and Doug. But, yeah, you can expect to pay a fair bit for some of these things.

A question for those of you that recommended Melissa and Doug... Did you buy them directly from their website? I found some stuff that I really liked, but when I went to pay for them it wouldn't let me select anywhere outside the USA for shipping...
