Toys for museum, zoo and theme park shops

KidiQ supplies zoo gift shop toys and museum shop toys wholesale to museum, zoo, aquarium and theme park shops across Europe: plush animals that match the collection, dinosaur and fossil dig kits, gemstone kits, animal figures, puzzles with your own artwork and kids’ backpacks with your logo, unbranded or made to your design. These are toys that remind visitors of the day.

The strongest lines are often exclusive: a plush version of your mascot or star animal, a jigsaw puzzle printed with your poster, a swing tag with your name. We plan them with a sample first and deliver to your shop or central warehouse.

Frequently asked questions

Can you make a plush version of our animal or mascot?

Yes. Send a sketch, photos or reference pictures, and we quote a sample with the size, plush type and embroidery. The per-design minimum is often 100–500 pieces, and there is a sample stage of 7–14 days plus design rounds before production.

Which tests does a custom plush toy need?

Usually EN 71-1 for mechanical properties such as seams and small parts, EN 71-2 for flammability and EN 71-3 for migration of certain elements, plus REACH checks on the textiles. If no valid report exists for the design, we arrange testing in an accredited laboratory before shipment, at your cost, quoted in advance.

Which toys suit zoo and museum gift shops?

Plush animals that match the collection, dinosaur, fossil and gemstone dig kits, animal and insect figures, jigsaw puzzles with the venue’s artwork, colour-in tote bags and kids’ coin purses and backpacks with a local design. KidiQ supplies them unbranded or under the venue’s name.

Can a zoo shop order small quantities of many plush animals?

Yes, for catalogue plush: supplier minimums vary by model and are shown on each product page, and you can combine models in one shipment. Exclusive designs need the per-design minimum, so many shops mix one exclusive with several catalogue animals.

When should museum and zoo shops order for the summer season?

By about January–February for catalogue lines, for arrival in spring. Custom designs need samples and document checks first, so start in autumn; factory holidays in late January–February stop production for 3–5 weeks.
