Jaques is the oldest toys and games company in the world. Passed down from father to son for eight generations, Jaques have been responsible for inventing many well known games, such as Croquet, Ping Pong, Snakes and Ladders, Ludo, Tiddledy Winks, The Staunton Chess Set, Happy Families, Snap and many more. We have learnt a lot about toys and games since we opened our doors in 1795 and have since expanded our product range extensively, now specialising in wooden toys and games across all ages and needs. Developed by UK teachers, our customers can guarantee that our toys have multiple educational benefits as well as endless hours of fun. Office hours are 9:00am- 5:00pm Monday-Friday. Not currently open to the general public.
