Schleich Dinosaurs: Built for Imagination. Designed for Generations.
At Nature’s Materials, we love products that inspire imagination, stand the test of time, and reflect the beauty of the natural world. That’s exactly why we carry Schleich dinosaur figurines.
Schleich has been a trusted name in children’s toys for nearly 90 years. Their animal figurines are incredibly realistic, sturdy, and loved by families around the world. When we added their dinosaurs to our shop, it wasn’t long before we heard from customers: “These are amazing!” and “They feel so solid!”
Each figure is heavy, detailed, and made to last—exactly the kind of timeless, open-ended toy we believe in.
Why We Chose Schleich Dinosaurs
Unmatched Realism: From scales to claws, Schleich dinos are anatomically detailed and carefully painted—perfect for budding paleontologists and nature lovers.
Durability You Can Feel: These figures are solid and weighty, built to withstand play (and tumbles) for years to come.
Sustainably Timeless: According to Schleich, 91% of people never throw away their figurines—they’re passed down, gifted, or donated, making them a naturally sustainable choice.
Great for Learning & Play: Whether used in a dinosaur unit study, a sensory bin, or just for backyard adventures, these toys fuel creativity and storytelling.
Made to Be Kept: These aren’t the toys that break or get tossed—they’re the ones that become heirlooms.
A Legacy of Play, A Future of Responsibility
Schleich has been creating animals, dinosaurs, and fantasy figures since 1935. As they say:"Do you remember your first toy?"Many do—and for countless families, that toy was a Schleich animal.
But the brand isn’t just looking to the past—they’re building a sustainable future. With a new company-wide sustainability strategy, Schleich is working to reduce waste, conserve resources, and protect the planet for generations to come.
