Is it possible to order a rocking horse in a different fabric or a different size?

Unfortunately, we're unable to offer alternative sizes or fabric options beyond those listed on our website.

Can I see your products before I buy?

Please contact us to enquire about stockists and retailers in your area. Not all stockists carry our full range, so we recommend contacting your chosen store before visiting to make sure the product you're interested in is available.

What should I do if my order hasn't arrived or has arrived damaged?

If your order has been despatched but hasn't arrived within the expected timeframe, please contact us and we'll be happy to investigate its whereabouts.

We take great care when packing our toys to protect them during transit. If your parcel or the goods inside arrive damaged, please contact us as soon as possible so we can help resolve the issue.

Can I cancel or amend my order?

If you need to cancel or amend your order, please contact us as soon as possible. We'll do our best to help before your order is despatched.

We offer a 30-day change-of-mind returns policy on eligible non-personalised products. Customers are normally responsible for return postage.

Personalised products cannot normally be returned simply because you've changed your mind or supplied incorrect engraving details. If you need to amend your personalisation, please contact us as soon as possible.

For full details, please see our Returns & Refunds Policy. Your statutory consumer rights remain unaffected.

Where are Little Bird Told Me products made and are they sourced responsibly?

All Little Bird Told Me toys are designed in West Yorkshire, Great Britain, and manufactured in China.

We've worked closely with our suppliers for many years and take responsible sourcing very seriously. We regularly assess our suppliers' practices, including labour standards, health and safety, environmental responsibility and ethical policies.

Our suppliers are members of SEDEX (Supplier Ethical Data Exchange), which supports transparency and responsible business practices throughout the supply chain.

Personalisation

Can I change my personalisation details after placing an order?

If you've made a mistake, please contact us as soon as possible. We'll do our best to help, but once engraving has begun, changes may no longer be possible.

Can I return a personalised rocking toy?

As personalised products are engraved especially for you, we cannot accept returns for a change of mind or mistakes in the engraving details you've supplied, except where required by applicable law.

However, if your product is faulty, damaged or incorrectly engraved by us, your statutory rights remain unaffected.
