About Us

TOY FEST – NEW ZEALAND OWNED AND OPERATED!!! 

Welcome to Toy Fest, proudly Canterbury owned and operated.

Toy Fest was started after the birth of my son. I completed my education without anyone identifying that I am dyslexic.

When I found out I was pregnant I began to read a lot about dyslexia and found that the latest research showed that there is a strong correlation between missing important milestones and learning disabilities.

I was determined to provide my child with all the necessary resources to ensure those milestones were met. After struggling to find the resources I needed I decided to source them myself. And that was the beginning of Toy Fest.

Prior to starting Toy Fest I completed my Two Degrees, one at Canterbury University (Bachelor of Commerce) and the other at Christchurch Polytechnic (Bachelor of Japanese). Then was fortunate to be employed by Coca-Cola Amatil NZ and then Griffins.

Today, Toy Fest continues to specialise in selling high quality educational toys and resources, as well as niche products not commonly found in the Retail market.

Toy Fest is also the New Zealand Distributor of the incredible Kids Safari Dress Up Range.

As a company and parents we recognise the importance of the early childhood years in a child’s development. For that reason we believe in supporting Early Childhood Providers with professional service, quality educational products and competitive pricing.

Based in Canterbury, New Zealand, Toy Fest is synonymous with quality and integrity. We are dedicated to providing top quality brands, large variety and innovative products.

Thanks for taking the time to visit Toy Fest
