The newest addition to the Royal Family was born earlier this week, in London, to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The prince is their third child and will be fifth in line to the throne after his older sister Princess Charlotte. He is also the first prince to be born and not overtake his sister in succession since the Princess Royal in 1950.

The prince’s name – Lois Arthur Charles – was revealed recently and we thought it only right to celebrate with a selection of our most prince appropriate toys. The Duke of Cambridge revealed that Prince George is a big fan of Lego when he was met by a life size Lego car on a recent tour of  McLaren Automotive’s headquarters!

Being a royal, Louis will undoubtedly have a large choice of toys to choose from, although he won’t be able to play with any gifts given to the Royal Family as the are famously unable to accept unsolicited gifts. We have a massive choice of toys here at Toy Street, and we’ve carefully picked out our top 5 toys we think Prince Louis would love.

1. Louis Bear

Louis Bear is a very handsome fellow! He’s part of the sought after Suki Silver Tag Collection where the bears are all limited edition, with just 1500 of each worldwide. He has a gorgeously soft and glossy coat, with adorable eyes and the cutest little waistcoat you’ve ever seen. We like to think that Prince Louis would love a bear of the same name, and who wouldn’t? He’s adorable!

2. Zigolos Pyjama Party Puzzle Learning Toys

We think Prince Louis will enjoy the more traditional toys as both George and Charlotte have been pictured playing with them, and that’s we why think Louis would love this toy. The little wooden box comes with six wooden bears all complete with pyjama tops, bottoms and glasses which can all be mixed and matched. The toy is also educational as it aids colour recognition and motor skill development.

3. Carousel Humming Top

The humming top (or “spinning top”) has been around for hundreds of years much like the royal family. Humming tops can come in all shapes and sizes with some of the first being made out of wood or stone. Our humming top is made from metal and features a traditional carousel print – a staple for any child.

4. Clown Jack In The Box

Another classic children’s toy, our Jack-in-the-box is bright and colourful and contains a friendly clown. When the handle is turned the tune of Pop Goes the Weasel is played until the clown springs out of the box, giving a happy surprise.

5. Camillo Teddy Bear

Camillo is a classic Steiff bear made from the finest mohair, and has a hand stitched black nose. He has a traditional teddy bear look and is fully jointed for easy movement. Steiff was founded over 100 years ago and would be the perfect special toy for any little prince.
