When designing our games and jigsaws we aim to not stereotype, discriminate or misrepresent any cultures, genders or disabilities. Although we always strive for positive representation, sometimes it is not always possible to demonstrate all options of gender, disability and race in every one of our products. Ensuring our products are inclusive and represent a range of children and characters is very important to us and we hope this shows in our games and jigsaws.

Yes. If you are based abroad but would like your order shipped to a UK address, standard UK delivery charges will apply.

All our prices are in UK Pounds Sterling. Your bank will convert your payment to your own local currency. Please refer to your bank for current exchange rates.

Don’t worry, we can help! We offer a Misplaced Pieces Service, where we offer up to three misplaced pieces free of charge. Plus additional misplaced pieces over three are charged at £1 each. Please note a postage and packaging charge of £1.30 is applied to every order. Just click here to find out more.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of the product, we are now unable to replace lost jigsaw pieces. Each jigsaw puzzle is individually produced and therefore we are unable to guarantee that the new piece would fit your puzzle. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Please accept our apologies for the missing item in your new Orchard Toys product. All of our games and jigsaws are packed by hand and despite our best efforts, there are occasions when a piece is missed by our packing teams.

We will of course replace your missing pieces for free. Please head to our Missing Pieces page for more information and to fill in our contact form. Once we have received the form, we will send you your new pieces immediately.

If you go to log into your account and have forgotten your password, simply click the ‘Forgotten your password?’ link. All you have to do is provide your email address and we will send you an email with a link to reset your password. This will give you a replacement password which you can then change in your account.

You can change your password directly in your account by clicking the ‘Change Password’ tab once logged in on the Account homepage.

We indicate the age range that we feel is most appropriate for each product; however, children develop at different rates, so please treat the age ranges as a guide only. If you are still unsure as to what to buy, why not read some of the game or puzzle reviews on our website or head to our educational benefits page to learn more about how they might help your child.

We take product safety very seriously and we work closely with Intertek, one of the UK’s largest UKAS Accredited testing laboratories, to ensure our products exceed the EN71 toy safety testing standards. Not only do our products also bare the CE Mark, but we are proud to say that Orchard Toys’ are members of the BTHA, which allows us to display the Lion Mark on our products too.

You can find reviews for different products on the individual product pages of the website. These are all honest reviews from people who have bought, used or tested Orchard Toys, and are not edited by us in any way.

We also work with a large number of parenting bloggers who provide honest reviews in exchange for product samples; we share these on our social media accounts so keep an eye out for these too!
