New online toy shop, FLUTTERBIES, launches with a promise of taking playtime back to basics. In line with a government funded study released by the University of Stirling , Flutterbies disregards computer based products and electronic goods in favour of simple, colourful and stimulating toys, designed to encourage interaction between parents and their children. Available to purchase virtually, the online treasure trove is a quick, easy and secure way to get your hands on toys children will not only love but also learn from.

From finger puppets to Dress up Pirates, Flutterbies has a range of carefully selected educational toys for children aged 0-6 years old. Each of the premium toys has a learning value, as well as being fun and durable.

A government funded study at the University of Stirling revealed that parents who invest in toy computers and other electronic games marketed as boosting learning for babies and pre-schoolers, could actually save their money and help children to learn themselves. Flutterbies Director Lisa Black reiterates; “So called 'clever' toys fail to teach children to play imaginatively. In contrast, hand puppets, blocks, theatres, bean bags, storytelling books and finger puppets help them develop crucial lifelong skills such as communication and co-ordination. They also make it easier for parents to join in, which is vital for boosting children's learning.”

With great care, love and attention the Flutterbies Team guarantee to have something fun and exciting in store for every child. Flutterbies’ clever Wish List mechanic, means friends and family can be alerted to favourite choices, making it a beautifully simple way to buy gifts. All products can be purchased through a fully secure online payment system with next day delivery (order before 1pm) or standard delivery.
