How to make a website for a toy shop

Parents and relatives looking for a toy usually know two things: the child's age and the budget. A small website shows your toys sorted that way, lists the bigger items like cycles and ride-ons, and sends them to your WhatsApp to check if a toy is in stock.

Tips for a toy shop website

Sort toys by age first; it is the first thing a parent or relative will tell you.
Copy the age mark from the toy's box, such as '3+', and keep small-parts warnings on toys for older children.
If your toys carry the ISI mark, say so on the toys by age page; many parents look for it.
Photograph big items like cycles and ride-ons fully assembled, with the price on the photo caption.
Show return gift packs opened up, so parents see exactly what each child gets.
Add the shop to a free Google Business Profile with the website link and parking details.

Good to know

Parents can't add toys to a cart, reserve a cycle or pay on the website; they WhatsApp or call you. For a catalogue with a cart and a record of what each family bought, a toy shop app fits better.
The pages are written in English. You can talk to AppCub in English, Hindi or Hinglish.
A website has no forms, bookings, payments or logins: visitors reach you on WhatsApp, by phone or on Google Maps.
Every page carries a small “Made with AppCub” badge and a “Report this site” link.

Questions

How should a toy shop website sort its toys?

By the child's age first, then by budget. Each age section can show a few photos with prices and a WhatsApp button to ask about more.

Can parents check if a toy is in stock from the website?

They tap WhatsApp on any page and send the toy's name or a photo. The website shows what you keep, not live stock.

Should I show safety marks on toy listings?

Copy the age mark and warnings from the toy's box. If a toy carries the ISI mark, you can say so.

Can I take return gift orders through the website?

Parents send the pack, quantity and party date on WhatsApp from the return gifts page, and you confirm there.

Can I show delivery for cycles and ride-on cars?

Yes. Write the delivery area and charge next to the big items, and settle the details on WhatsApp.

Do I need to update the website every time new toys come in?

No. Show the kinds of toys and price ranges, and change the photos a few times a year by asking in the chat.
