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.

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.
Highland cows originated in the Scottish Highlands and the Western Islands with long horns and a long shaggy coat. They are not usually seen in the wilds of Scotland wearing stripey jumpers, though we think it could be a lovely addition. 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.

Plesiosaurus is an extinct marine reptile that lived in the Jurassic period. The plesiosaurus was twice as long as a modern horse and weighed twice as much as a modern pig. The name plesiosaurus means 'almost lizard' though it is often described as looking like a combination of a modern day turtle and snake.
As the plesiosaurus lived in the same period as the dinosaurs, we have decided to add this baby dinosaur soft toy to our knitted dinosaur teddy family.

Our cheerful orange knitted diplodocus knitted dinosaur toy is a firm favourite with dinosaur mad kids. In real life the Diplodocus had one of the smallest brains of the dinosaur family, but it was still way ahead of the Stegosaurus which had the 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?
Available in three sizes our diplodocus is one of our most popular dinosaur toys.
Ideal gift ideas for kids of all ages - particularly dinosaur mad ones! If you are looking for dinosaur toys for toddlers, this dinosaur teddy could be just the thing.

Please note, since natural rubber is 100% natural and we do not use stuffing or chemicals in the dinosaur toys, they can change shape slightly if exposed to cold, and look slightly concave. This is perfectly safe and normal shape sometimes returns once the rubber warms up again. (see photo).
