FAQs

Why is each product cycle 8 weeks long?

An 8-week cycle strikes a balance between maintaining your child’s interest and providing ample time for them to engage deeply with each toy. Research indicates that children benefit from having fewer toys available at once, as it encourages more creative and focused play. By rotating toys every few weeks, children can explore and master new skills without becoming overwhelmed.

Why should I rent toys instead of buying them?

Renting toys offers several advantages:

  • Cost-Effective: Access high-quality toys at a fraction of the purchase price.
  • Variety: Regularly introduce new toys to keep your child engaged and support their development.
  • Convenience: Save time by eliminating the need to shop for new toys.
  • Sustainability: Reduce waste by returning toys when they’re no longer needed, avoiding clutter and the hassle of reselling or donating.

This approach ensures your child enjoys a diverse range of educational toys without the drawbacks of ownership.

How are That Matters' toys cleaned?

As parents, we understand that your child’s health and safety come first. That’s why we follow a meticulous, professional cleaning process to ensure every toy meets the highest hygiene standards. Our process begins with high-pressure washing using child-safe cleaning agents to remove dirt and germs. We then disinfect with Milton Baby Cleaner, proven to eliminate 99.9% of bacteria, before using the Tommee Tippee UV Steriliser—renowned for its advanced sterilisation technology. To ensure absolute safety, all toys are naturally air-dried, leaving no harmful residues behind. You can trust that your little one’s playtime is always clean and worry-free.
