Our pterodactyl knitted flying dinosaur toy in striking yellow yarn has bat-like wings and a crest on its head. The pterodactyl is not strictly a dinosaur but was in fact a type of flying reptile - part of the pterosaur family. As it lived in the same period as the dinosaurs, in the late Jurassic period, we have decided to add it to our knitted dinosaur toys family. Pterodactyls would have been approximately the same size as modern birds such as eagles and hawks.
if you are looking for unique gift ideas for kids, a knitted pterodactyl will fit the brief! Also available as a large dinosaur cuddly toy and a small baby rattle.

Knitted Highland Cow Soft Toy with Stripe Jumper
Our knitted Highland Cow soft toy in a gorgeous bright stripe jumper has proven to be a best seller in our soft toy range.

Our adorable Highland cow teddy is perfect for cuddles and imaginative play with its shaggy coat, soft horns and appealing little face beneath a floppy fringe.

Following the popularity of our orange knitted diplodocus dinosaur soft toy, we introduced a green version - a knitted diplodocus green dinosaur toy.
The Diplodocus had one of the smallest brains of the dinosaur family, though it was much bigger that than of the Stegosaurus which had a brain the size of a walnut! It didn't need to be the brightest as it had no natural enemies, perhaps because of its sheer size or maybe because it looks so friendly?

The titanosaur dinosaur is one of the largest known creatures to walk on planet Earth. The largest titanosaurs were four times the weight of the diplodocus dinosaur, so it can be hard to imagine that a dinosaur of that size grew from a football sized egg. Like the triceratops and stegosaurus, this was a herbivorous dinosaur that fed off vegetation high off the ground.
This large dinosaur teddy has a long articulated neck and would make the perfect gift for the dinosaur mad child or adult in your life.
