I've recommended your site to a couple of friends who were struggling to help their kids learn certain things and were admiring my son's knowledge!!
I told them the thing to do was to go to your site and pick some of the many many wonderful quality learning toys and work with their kids for a bit and
sit back and enjoy watching the kids continue to learn as they play!!! - Angela

i found the online ordering process simple an trouble free, delivery was prompt and the courier service you use were helpfull and polite, i happened not to be at my home when the courier rang but he met me at another destination to deliver the goods which i appreciated. - Tracey

Really impressed with the speedy delivery of products. Excellent value and free delivery was an added bonus. My nephew loved his presents and got hours of fun out of them. Really love the range of products you have in your catalogue especially Le Toy Van range. Hope to put in an order for my daughter\'s birthday for her dolls house collection. Thanks again for your great service.

I have made two orders in the last month and very happy with the items received & the overall service. You are very nice to deal with and delivery is fast. Also I was delighted to find some of the Playmobil we ordered was the cheapest we found as we love Playmobil in our house and we are collecting the sets gradually. You have a great range of products in general and I'd love to buy them all! I'll definitely be ordering again. - Emma

We are delighted with their Christmas presents! Thank you for such speedy delivery. In particular my daughter (5 years old) was thrilled with the sticky mosaics. She enjoyed working independently on her projects on Christmas day! We look forward to seeing more of this type of activity on offer in the future! She is also very pleased to have her own pink book holders, as her brother had the blue pirate set already! The bath toys are also great fun! Well done on such a wide variety of toys! - Aileen

I must admit that the entire experience with Mimitoys was amazing, right from the first call I made to order the toys until they were delivered. Myles offered me advice about the toys that I was purchasing, it really was a great help. Updates were provided constantly regarding the delivery due to the weather circumstances and everything was received in time for Christmas and the kids loved them. The toys are so original and beautifully crafted.

Once again the girls age 11, 7 & 4 loved the toys from your store. The older two are working their way through the art material, sand art, fashion art etc.. My 7 year old had great fun with the Horrible Science set, right up her street! My 11 year old Art Nouveau set is beautiful. My 4 year old loved the Cinderella hand puppet, I think a few more Princesses may have to be purchased. Thanks for the extensive range..its great to have something a bit different to interest them..

As with earlier purchases the buying experience rates 10/10. There is a really professional feel about the way you do business and you are totally reliable. You deserve to thrive. Our kids are almost past the age range for the site but we will continue to recommend you.

Thank you so much for your incredibly quick delivery, when I ordered there was heavy snow and ice and I honestly resigned myself to barely getting it in time for Christmas, if at all (she has a birthday in January so it wouldn't have gone to waste but would have necessitated me running out Christmas Eve to pick up an alternative present) I was pleasantly shocked when it arrived just 2 days after I placed the order.
It wasn't the first time I've ordered from Mimitoys and it certainly won't be the last, every toy we've purchased form you has become a firm favourite and they are some of the most robust and versatile toys we've ever bought.

I purchased from your good selves prior to Christmas for my daughter and I would have nothing but praise for your Company and have recommended you to many family and friends.� Firstly on checking your website for what I required I read the descriptions of the items required and it was exactly what I required.� On ordering same I got free postage as the items I ordered were over the value of �65.00 and within one week the items arrived at my door in perfect condition and a little extra was thrown in which really made my day.� From start to finish the service and products you provide are top class and no doubt will be on again to order more of the excellent products on offer.

I just had to send an email to compliment you on such a wonderful, fast and efficient service you provide.� I ordered dolls furniture for my daughter for Xmas on 30th November at 10 am and they were delivered to me by 11 am the next day 1st December, what a service, especially given the terrible weather in this country over the last two weeks.��� I couldn't recommend your company highly enough.�� I have today ordered further furniture for my sister and friend as we were all here this morning reliving our childhood playing with the kitchen furniture on the floor.���� The range of toys is fantastic and I will definitely be buying again for further xmas and birthday presents.�� Keep up the wonderful work.-� Noelette from Co.

hi, we recently bought the wooden table with the frog and mouse chairs. Our daughter loves it, its the perfect height and she can play now standing up ( she is 13 months and just walking). It has given us peace of mind as she is not sitting on the floor picking up dirty toys. It is really solid, able to withstand the pressure of her leaning against it. My friend has a plastic one that topples over and hurts her son. We also got wooden blocks that jingle when you shake them. she loves these too, and even better they will still be a useful toy as she grows up.
you are providing a great service, keep up the good work. and thank you for the free toy you sent... its the little touches that make the difference

Firstly, I was delighted to find an Irish company providing good� quality toys that met my expectations and my children's needs. As yet� my daughter hasn't had the opportunity to try out her gift as it will� be opened on the 25th December!
I had done a good bit of web surfing prior to finding your website.� The dangly carrot for me was your offer of free delivery with any� orders over �65. Other websites based in the UK and USA charge huge� delivery costs. I love finding websites that offer alternative toys� that require imagination and interpretation on the part of the child.
Your website is very user friendly and my order was processed and the� item delivered very promptly.The only comment I would have about your site is that I was unable to� view my order history.

I would like to thank you for the prompt and free delivery of the toys and to say that the level of service was excellent.� Mimi had some excellent advice for us on choosing the toys and pointed out what she thought would not suit for use in the public library setting so that was very valuable to us.� Also the order was easy to do - your website has good information about the products and is easy to use.

Thanks for your email and for the wonderful wheelybugs we received (very promptly!) from Mimitoys. I'd be delighted to give you more detailed feedback as we were genuinely happy with the products & service. I have a wee favour of my own to ask though... the toys we purchased from you were gifts for our twin nieces' birthday however they received the same gifts from a relative in Germany so we're in a bit of a tricky situation where the parents have asked us if we can return ours rather than having to get the others shipped back to Germany. I see from your website that you operate a 7 day returns policy and I realise that we're outside this limit but I was wondering if there is any way we could return them to you please?
Angela from Kilkenny
Mimitoys happily accepted the return on full refund.

I bought a small rocking horse for my year old granddaughter. The delivery was almost instant.It arrived in good condition and was easy to assemble - took about an hour. The toy was sturdy and our little lady seemed to like it and get the idea of rocking it . She has not had it long so I cannot comment on the durability, but I was pleased with the toy and thought it was good value for money.

We commented on the shopping basket not holding for future reference - the lady in Mimitoys was quick onto it...
I ordered over the phone. The lady on the other end was great to talk to and very efficient and precise.
The toy concept ('play pretend'), and range is excellent, the quality is very good... The price is reasonable too. Delivery on time to us - great

Hi Mimi
I just wanted to let you know I just found your website through rollercoaster.ie & thought it is an excellent idea. What you said about not being able to say no to the kids in toy shops is so true, I have exactly the same problem with my 2 boys Billy aged 18 months and Ethan aged 3 yrs.
I am living in Romania at the monent where the toys have no Eu regulations & 70% are extremely bad quality unsuitable for small children with small pieces that break of easily etc. I love your range of toys especially the outdoor toys and love the fact that you do not sell imitation weapons as I feel our children are exposed to much of that rubbish. A lot of people don't share my views on a no toy guns policy for my boys and say I'm over protective or over sensitive about the issue.
We return to live in Ireland on the 18th March to sell our home in Dublin and move to Co Laois . I wish you good luck with your venture and I always support people trying to do their own thing like you so will pass on your site details to as many people as I can and of course will be a new for you once settled in Ireland
Take care
Sincerely Lisa

Hi Mimi,
Lovely to hear back from you. Delighted to be on your database and be kept up to date on your stock.
I had looked at the toys for exceptional kids (great name!) and will be giving your website to M__s home teacher, physiotherapist and speech therapist who are based at _____ House. They are the service providers and the ones in direct contact with families. They choose and recommend the toys they use with the children so I am sure they will find your site very useful.
If I can be of any help in this area please let me know. I am a Doctor of _____ by profession and have a number of children with special needs as patients. (who I will also give your site to.)
Wishing you and your family fulfilling healthy Christmas,
Kind regards,
Lorene from Dublin

Thank you for the prompt delivery of the beautiful prince and princess glove puppets.
My son is 6 years old and mildly autistic and I have always found it difficult to find the kind of toys he is interested in, however the toys you supply appear to be almost tailor made for him.
He adores the magnet set we purchased for his birthday, and is constantly looking at the world through the binoculars and magnifying glass.
I am tempted to start playing with the glove puppets now instead of waiting for christmas, I just know he will derive great fun out of them.
Thanks again

That is excellent, thanks a million. I wasn't expecting them so quick. My sister has had a little boy in the summer and is already planning her 1st birthday present from your catalogue. She was really impressed with the toys we have received so far. I will definitely be back too, Christmas/Birthday Shopping has never been so easy
Thanks

Thank you for your e-mail below. The 'Taggie' was very well received by our
daughter, in fact it has become indispensable. I'd hate to think what would
happen if we ever lost it, hence the new order!!
The Taggie has become an integral part of her bedtime routine, when she
see's she immediately holds out her arms for it and gives it a big hug, then
the thumb goes into the mouth and she's off to sleep with no arguments -
having said that it could all change next week but it's worked so far and
I'm delighted I bought it!!
Thanks and best wishes,

Dear Mr. Doyle.
I received the toys I ordered last Friday. I was initially disapointed that they had not arrived sooner but more than happy with the way you have dealt with the matter.
I was also very impressed to read in your brochure that you have researched all the toys you purchase to ensure no child labour is involved.
I would most definitely consider ordering from you again and have recommended you to friends.
Yours sincerely,
Tracy from London.

Hi Mimi/Myles,
I just have to put pen to paper on your new company,� what a find !!� I work full time and have 2 girls 10mts and 2 yrs. Shopping for toys in my case is a snatched 20 mins in a shop and I usually end up bringing home a toy which I find gives no benefit to my children.� I have done a small amount of research myself on what toys are the most beneficial for their development
and find it impossible to get toys in my local toy shop.
So you can imagine my delight to see all your toys, which you have already researched and tested, available to me by post !!� without the hassle of shopping.
My order arrived last week and my 2 yr old daughter loves your beautiful wooden table and blue cat chair.� It is ideal for drawing with crayons (your large pack for little hands)..... and playing with her playdoh.� We also read wonderful stories from your book collection like "Lazy Ozzie".
One item that she gets particular enjoyment from is your large wooden beads and string. Such a simply idea but it works !!
I can't wait for her to get to the 3yr age group so I can start buying thefantastic toys you have on offer ........
Keep up the good work......
Niamh

Dear Mimi
Your smelling game arrived promptly and both myself and the children (and parents) were very excited by it, it is perfect for a Montessori classroom and I recommended it to a few colleagues at our conference this weekend.
I numbered the flasks 1 -30 top and bottom to avoid any mixing of the lids and this has been very helpful as the child can correct them himself before replacing them on the shelf.
Many thanks and good luck
Rachel from Sligo
