Whether you are looking for a birthday gift or some new toys for church, having Biblical toys for toddlers will help them learn about the Lord. It’s amazing how many christ-centered toys are out there, but finding ones that your toddler actually likes is a different story.
I love having some biblical toys for my daughter to play with. Some are even quiet enough to bring with us to church. It’s really important that these toys not only teach them about the Lord but keep your kiddo entertained too.
As I put together this list, you will find that every item is Biblically based. My hope was to find toys that share God’s word while keeping them busy. Because let’s face it, what’s the point in buying them if they don’t find these toys interesting.
The Best Biblical Toys for Toddlers
When choosing Biblical toys for a toddler, it’s important to take into consideration what milestones they are at. They are growing and changing so much at this stage, so you will want to be sure the toy is appropriate for where they are at.

1. Bible Story Lacing Cards
My toddler loves threading right now. These lacing cards are perfect to practice the pincer grip and helps with hand-eye coordination.
I love that as we are playing with them, I can share some biblical stories with her. It makes sharing the Bible a little easier!
2. Noahs Ark Jigsaw Puzzle
Most toddlers between 18-24 months start to take interest in puzzles. This Noah’s ark Jigsaw puzzle is great for helping them to learn dexterity along with hand-eye coordination.
My daughter loves animals, so this puzzle is perfect! Plus I’m a sucker for wooden puzzles, so it’s a win-win!
3. Bible Story Water Wow Pad
Do you want to keep your kiddo busy without a big mess? That’s why I love these water-wow pads. They are re-usable too which is a huge bonus.
The pictures in this are really cute and include scenes of David + Goliath, Jesus Feeds the 5000, and more!
4. Reusable Sticker Pads with Bible Stories
Stickers are always a huge hit in our house. I love that these are reusable and can be taken to church!
The only downfall is that the stickers don’t always stay in place. I’m sure that’s because they are supposed to be reusable, but my daughter gets pretty frustrated.
It includes scenes of Daniel and the lion’s den, Jonah and the Whale, Noah’s Ark, and more!

6. Little People Nativity Set
This toddler-friendly nativity set is the perfect way to explain the story of baby Jesus. I love that it allows your kids to interact with the Characters. It not only lights up but also plays Away In the Manger!
Usually, nativity sets are breakable… so I love that toddlers can enjoy this nativity and play with the characters.
7. Nativity Story Box
What you will love about this Nativity Story box is that you can pack it up for more fun on the go! It’s great for church, going out to dinner, or over to a friend’s house.
Although the Little People set above may be more interesting to toddlers at first, with the lights and music, this set allows for open-ended play!

It has 18 animals for them to practice putting in the little pouches. You can also get it personalized by Pockets of Learning which is a sweet touch!
11. Life of Jesus Nesting Dolls
We love nesting dolls. They are a great way to teach relationship and in this case the story of Jesus’ life.
Since starting a Montessori approach with my daughter, I love that it helps with their coordination and fine motor skills. You can read more about how they will benefit your toddler here.
12. Bible History Block Puzzle
Block puzzles may be a little difficult for toddlers to enjoy during independent play. With some guidance they will learn how to put them together.
During this activity, you can explain the Bible scenes and use them to teach your toddler about the Lord.
13. Noah’s Ark Tub Toys
Last but certainly not least are these foam Noah’s Ark Tub Toys. Bath time is usually when my daughter is able to focus a little more. So, I love that we can talk about the Lord as she still enjoys her bath.
