About The Vintage Toy Box
Welcome to The Vintage Toy Box, your ultimate destination for an enchanting selection of timeless toys, classic games, engaging puzzles, and memorable gifts for all ages.
Our first Toy Shop in Moss Vale, Southern Highlands of NSW.
Founded after years of successful online retail, we took the exciting leap into the bustling high streets, opening our very first brick-and-mortar store in 2018, nestled in the charming Southern Highlands town of Moss Vale, NSW, halfway between Sydney and Canberra.
Here, we proudly showcased our exceptional and diverse collection of unique and fabulous toys, bringing joy to our local community and sparking nostalgia for those who visited.
Our Canberra Toy Store at shop 531 Dirty Janes Canberra in Fyshwick in Canberra.
In the year 2020, an irresistible opportunity beckoned us, leading to an exciting relocation of The Vintage Toy Box to the renowned Dirty Janes emporium in the vibrant area of Fyshwick, Canberra.
Here, nestled among over one hundred independent stallholders, each renowned for their vintage charm and bold uniqueness, we happily found our new home.
We recently undertook a little transformation here, undergoing a little revamp in May 2024.
Our Orange Toy Store at shop 531 Dirty Janes Orange.
Following our remarkable success, we took a significant step forward by expanding further with the grand opening of Dirty Janes Orange in April 2024, solidifying our unwavering commitment to bringing joy and classic play to communities across New South Wales and Australia.
At The Vintage Toy Box, we specialize in a wonderfully diverse array of classic toys and games that cater to the young and the young-at-heart. From nostalgic wooden toys and engaging educational playsets to intricately designed craft kits and beloved tin toys that remind us of simpler times, our captivating collection evokes joyful smiles and sparks boundless creativity. We are not just a classic toy shop; we are a delightful gateway to cherished memories and endless fun for everyone who walks through our doors.
We truly believe in the timeless and enduring appeal of good old-fashioned toys that manage to captivate the imaginations of both children and adults alike. Whether it's our top-selling spinning tops, which spin with delight, or a delightful journey into nostalgia with retro games that bring back fond memories, every single item in our collection is individually curated with care to ensure it stands the test of time. As a small, independent, family-run Australian business, we take immense pride in offering quality products that thoughtfully eschew batteries and excessive plastic, thereby minimizing our environmental footprint while promoting sustainable play.
Our commitment extends far beyond simply providing toys; we aim to inspire and nurture creativity through the magic of play. We wholeheartedly encourage children to explore their unique interests and learn independently, all while fostering their imagination and essential problem-solving skills through our thoughtfully selected and diverse range of toys from all around the globe.
Each delightful product we proudly offer has undergone rigorous testing by our toughest critics—children themselves, who tell it like it is. If a toy does not pass the approval of our meticulous ten-year-old toy tester, it simply does not make it onto our vibrant shelves. This thorough vetting process ensures that every toy not only delights but also educates and actively engages young minds in imaginative play. We believe that playtime should be both fun and enriching!
Step into The Vintage Toy Box and experience the delightful charm of yesteryears brought to life in a truly magical way. Allow your children's imaginations to soar as they play with enchanting toys that effortlessly transport them back in time, while you take a moment to reminisce about your own cherished childhood favourites. We invite you to share your nostalgic stories with us, and as a token of our appreciation, we will reward you with a special code that you can pass down to help spread the joy to the next generation of young dreamers.
