Welcome to The Children's Bookshop. We have one of the largest selections of quality children's books in New Zealand, and a wide range of educational toys, puzzles, games, music and audio books. Our knowledgeable staff can help select books specifically for your child, or your school or library. We offer a "special order" service and will search for that special book. We pack and post worldwide.
Books
We pride ourselves on our broad selection of wonderful books by leading New Zealand and international writers and illustrators. From beautifully illustrated picture books for infants, toddlers and young children just beginning their discovery of words and stories, to novels and detailed, non-fiction reference books for older children. If you are looking for something educational, fun or you just want a great story, you'll find it at the Children's Bookshop.
Toys
We know how hard it is to buy good toys for children and we go that extra mile to find that unique toy that will last. Toys that have all the qualities a gift to children should have; made of quality materials, offer educational values or a treasure that children will remember with fondness for the rest of their lives.
Puzzles and Games
We love puzzles and games, they are a great way to bring the family together. We have a wonderful range of fascinating and unique games that are not just educational, they are fun. From early learning games with shapes and words for toddlers to European board games and family strategy games that will appeal just as much to adults. Strategy, education and laughter, a very special gift to a child and the whole family.
We have jigsaws for all ages. The range will keep children, and their parents busy over a wet weekend. Simple puzzles to do with your toddler or large puzzles that everyone can help with. And there are so many fantastic puzzles to choose from, dinosaurs, amazing landscapes and wonderful art.
Music and Audiobooks
From new born babies to adults, music plays an important part in our lives. Music helps development in education from the learning of language in infants to aiding reading and math skills in older children. Most importantly, it promotes fun and play. We have a special selection of music composed specifically for children by well-known children's song writers.
Do you remember the old days, listening to stories on the radio, seeing the pictures in your own mind. Stories that you stay with you forever. Let your children experience the same magic and excitement with our selection of audio books and stories on CD.
