8 of the best Minnie Mouse toys for little Disney fans

This sweet Disney Store Minnie Mouse is a large soft toy which your little one will love to snuggle. Instantly recognisable, Minnie is dressed in her iconic pink dress with large bow. One reviewer said, "my granddaughter absolutely loves this Minnie. She takes her everywhere she goes, she's her new best friend." However, at 67cm tall, this is quite a large toy to take out and about with you. Another tester loved the larger size, commenting, it's "great value for the money and the kids will love it."

With embroidered details and soft fabric, we like that this is suitable from newborn to introduce your little one to Minnie Mouse straight from birth. It makes a lovely gift because it can be personalised, however, do bear in mind that it costs extra to add a personalisation. While it is great for young children, it is not machine washable and can only be wiped clean, so might be difficult to keep it stain free.

For Minnie Mouse fans, young or old, this toy is perfect. She has a lovely cheerful expression and is a great introduction to Disney.

If your little one loves Minnie Mouse and LEGO, then this set is perfect. One reviewer said, "this was a gift for my granddaughter who loves anything Disney and Lego. What could be better than both in one!" Suitable from four years, Minnie Mouse's Ice Cream Shop has easy to follow instructions and comes with a Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck figure, as well as LEGO pieces to build a car for the figures. It will keep them entertained for hours as they build and play with the set as one tester agreed, "I bought this for my four year old Great Granddaughter. She was delighted and has enjoyed playing with it."

While this is suitable for four years plus, some reviewers did comment that it is quite tricky for little ones to build and they need adult help. The instructions are simple but still over complicated for young children. Once built, testers said it provided hours of entertainment and we love that it helps to teach building skills, as well as encouraging creative play.

Minnie Mouse loves fashion and this set will give your little one chance to dress her up using any of the ten accessories, including bows, bags, shoes and dresses. Plus we love that it comes with a handy carry case to carry the Minnie figure and her accessories around. One reviewer was really impressed and said, it "comes with accessories such as different bows, shoes, with different outfits, and it's easy to change her. Everything is easy to handle by my 5 year old. It also comes with a carry case to put everything away. Love it!"

We also love that it is simple to use and Minnie Mouse is easy to dress. At 6 inches tall, Minnie Mouse is a great size for little hands and she is also posable so she can really model those outfits! Your little one will love trying all the different outfit combinations. However, it is important to note that some reviewers thought the clasp on the case was a bit weak and there is risk it will come undone when on the move.

Ideal for younger Minnie Mouse fans, this is a great ride on toy for children with lots of interactive features such as a removable toy phone, under seat storage, and a real engine and horn sounds too, which we love. One reviewer commented, "absolutely love it! Interactive, colourful and well designed."

It makes a great first ride-on toy and little ones will love the bright colours even if they don't recognise Minnie Mouse just yet. One tester agreed saying, "lovely colourful first ride on, lots of extra sensory toys attached, very sturdy." It also features music and lights, but this does require 2 x AA batteries.

It is a great toy to develop gross motor skills because children need to push it along themselves using their feet and one customer, Debbie, said, her daughter loves it even though "she’s only tiny for her age but loves scooting around the house on it and taking teddy for a ride." However, another tester, Lindsey, noted, "the only small glitch is that it rolls away a bit too easily so it runs away with her or it’s moving before she can get on. I’m sure once she’s walking a bit better this won’t be a problem."

A great playhouse for Minnie Mouse fans, the Minnie's Bow-Tel Hotel features four floors, 13 accessories, and three character figures. Plus we love the lift on one side to move the characters up and down the house to each floor. There is even a slide to make it more fun when coming down. Designed for younger children, one reviewer said: "I bought this for my 17 month old daughter and her cousin to play with as they are both Minnie fans and it's an instant hit. The perfect dollhouse for a toddler because the smallest piece is still big enough for it to be safe to play with, (I would still monitor while they play though)."

It is a versatile toy and can provide hours of imaginative play with one customer commenting, "my 3 year old grandson really wanted this for Christmas. He loves it! He incorporates his monster trucks, dinosaurs and whatever else he is playing with at the time into this toy. He has a great imagination and we have a lot of fun playing with it." However some reviewers did find that the slide is flimsy and doesn't fit as well as expected so it can fall off.

The Disney Junior Minnie Mouse Ring Me Rotary Phone is a lovely toy for young children who love Minnie Mouse. We love the design especially the glittery Minnie Mouse bow. One reviewer said, "this is so cute and perfect and super durable. It's already been through the “ringer” with my two year old but it stands strong and she loves it, " so not only is it a sweet design but it is sturdy too, and can withstand some of the rough play toddlers or preschoolers will inevitably put it through.

For added fun, it also has light up effects, makes a ringing noise and features Minnie Mouse phrases. The dial can be rotated as well so your little one can pretend to dial making it ideal for role play games, as one customer said, "my niece loves Disney and princesses and was recently getting into phones. So we bought this for her and she was in love from the first sight. Kept her busy for a long time and she would play with this and try to call her siblings and parents. Hearing her baby voice say "Hello" was pure joy." However, some reviewers were disappointed that sound of Minnie's voice doesn't come from the actual earpiece.

We all love Squishmallows and this Minnie Mouse one is just adorable. Plus, we like how super cuddly it is too. It is perfect for any Squishmallow collection, especially Disney fans. It is popular with reviewers with one saying, "my daughter loves it and won't leave it alone."

Designed from high quality materials to give it a soft to touch feel, the plush is 35cm tall so a great size to cuddle. We also love the choice of pastel colours in the design, plus it can double as a comfy pillow too as one customer commented, "I’m obsessed with Minnie Mouse, so it’s added to my collection. It’s very soft, works as a good pillow and is very comfy. I have had it for a while now and is still like new."

There are lots of Disney Squishmallows to collect, including Mickey Mouse, and we love that this one can be part of your collection. It is also suitable for newborns, however, do be aware that some customers commented on the disappointing quality and said the stitching was loose.

The Disney Junior Minnie Mouse Sweets & Treats Ice Cream Cart comes with lots of accessories for your little one to play with and they can run their own mini-ice cream business and who doesn't like ice cream, especially with a Minnie Mouse theme. One reviewer agreed, saying, "it keeps my niece entertained as she’s an ice cream lover. There's lots of things included to keep her playing with this ice cream maker."

We love that it helps to encourage imaginative play and social skills through role play because your little one can take orders and sell treats. However, while it is fun for children to create their own ice creams, it can cause frustration too because reviewers report that the toppings often fall off. But children can also make pretend milkshakes with the blend and swirl button, plus the truck plays music, although it does require two AAA batteries.
