Super Cool Frog Toys for Toddlers (& Awesome Gifts for Toddlers who Love Frogs!)

  • Share

Discover the best frog toys for toddlers and gifts for toddlers who love frogs! With wood frog toys, for bath toys, and books about frogs for toddlers there’s something for the frog-obsessed toddler in your life.

My daughter has recently become fascinated by frogs. She loves finding the frogs in her books, pointing, and proclaiming “nana!” (She’s bilingual and, like most little kids, doesn’t say the letter r. Frog in Spanish is rana, so nana is her word for frog.) 

As part of our Montessori-inspired philosophy of parenting, we try to “follow the child.” In other words, we watch for her natural interests and explore them. This has me looking for frog books and toys for toddlers! Today I’m sharing my top picks with these best frog toys for toddlers. I hope you enjoy!

Stuffed frog toys

When buying a stuffed animal for an energetic toddler, it pays off to go with a trusted brand that you know will last. Two of my favorite stuffed animal brands (both for overall quality and their softness!) are Jellycat and Aurora. Luckily, both have cute stuffed frog toys!

This Jellycat stuffed frog is so super soft fluffy!

Aurora also has several stuffed frogs to pick from. Aurora plushes are always soft and well-made, so they’re a go-to choice for our family.

This cuddly Aurora stuffed frog is so lovable it’s hard to get away from your tot. It’s perfectly sized for carrying around, so don’t be surprised when it becomes a favorite.

Frog toys for toddlers

This ball from Hape has several animals, not just frogs, on it. I know a lot of toddlers love balls and I appreciate that this ball is only 4.5 inches and perfectly sized for little hands.

Felt Frog Puzzle

Toddler's working on their puzzle skills will love this cute, handmade felt frog puzzle.

Unlike cardboard puzzles that can become bent or soiled from snack time mishaps, this felt and wood popsicle stick puzzle is durable and easy to use.

Maybe this MAM frog teether isn’t quite a ‘toy,’ but I still wanted to include it because even toddlers need teether. Have you ever been around a toddler getting their molars in?

The Little Balancing Frogs Game is a huge hit with my frog-loving toddler. It’s fun to watch her balancing skills develop, and she enjoys playing with the four included frogs as standalone toys.

For the serious frog lover you want to spoil, this frog rocker would be so much fun. Rocking provides great gross motor practice and vestibular input, plus it’s a great way to burn off some toddler energy before bedtime.

No products found.

Frog bath toys

When it comes to bath toys, I always try to go with brands I trust because too many cheap bath toys are made with vinyl containing PVC.

According to experts, PVC is not safe at any point in its lifecycle. Manufacturing and disposing of PVC releases hazardous chemicals, so it’s important to avoid products with PVC whenever possible for adults and children, alike. (source)

These Haba squirting bath toy frogs would be great in a bath, pool, or water table! 

Table could not be displayed.

It isn’t available on Amazon, but Haba also has a finger puppet frog in a boat bath toy. 

This floating bath frog from Hape looks like another winner! It’s definitely on our wishlist. I’ve never been disappointed with a toy from Hape.

Wood frog toys

As regular readers know, I’m a huge fan of wood toys! You can read more about my favorite non-toxic wood toys for toddlers if you’d like to see some of our LG’s top picks!

I was so thrilled to find a couple frog toys from Hape, one of my favorite, highly trusted wood toy brands.

This wood frog pull along toy opens and closes its mouth as your little one pulls it across the floor!

Wood Frog Xylophone

Your little frog lover will delight in having their own personalized frog! Customize this xylophone with a name, short message, or special date like a first Christmas or birthday.

This personalized wood frog xylophone is bright, colorful, and made from wood so it won't be as loud as a metal xylophone for the adults that are listening.

This wood frog puzzle would be a great choice for an older toddler.

To make a puzzle more engaging, demonstrate its use a couple times, but store the pieces in a basket or tray next to the puzzle frame. When a puzzle is already completed and sitting on the shelf, it isn’t as enticing! I started using this trick with LG’s wood stacker toy and it was incredible to see how much more she uses it now. It’s like she can’t help herself – when she sees the rings aren’t on the spindle she has to stack them!

Wood Frog Lacing Toy

This wood lacing toy is the perfect way for older toddlers to practice important fine motor skills and lacing skills.

The puzzle is made from hard wood and is left unpainted so there's no risk of contamiation or unknown paint ingredients. It comes well sanded and oiled, but you can ask the maker for an un-oiled piece if you'd prefer.

Haba, another one of my favorite toy companies, also has frog toys for toddlers! I went ahead and included a clutching toy because my toddler is shaking a rattle around right now (literally she’s sitting beneath my desk with it as I type this.) I think she enjoys ‘smash and bang’ type toys as a toddler far more than she did as an infant.

Frog books for toddlers

Plip-Plop Pond! is a favorite at our house. It’s an Indestructibles book, which means it can go in the bath, too! It has no words, but the frog appears on every page so I think of it as the narrator.

We’ve owned a pair of Yalion slippers and they held up remarkably well. I had pretty low expectations for the price, but they were outgrown before they were worn out!
