Best Dragon Toys of 2023

This dragon begins life in his egg. You can see through the shell, and when you shake it, the dragon will growl. Tap on the outside of the shell, and he’ll tap back.

When you’ve interacted with him enough, the dragon shell “cracks open” and you can play with your dragon. Then you can teach your dragon toy to fly, eat, and plasmablast.

Play music and he will dance, ask him questions and he’ll answer, and roar at him, and he’ll roar back.

LEGO has multiple fabulous dragon sets available, including dragons in their Harry Potter, Ninjago, Minecraft, and Elves lines. We chose this one because it has the broadest appeal.

You can also disassemble it and follow the instructions to build a giant spider or a troll.

Playmobil has an entire How To Train Your Dragon franchise range, which our family adores, but we chose this set for a bit of variety.

This set includes a dragon and two people, all of which are articulated. There is a catapult with fireballs for the people to shoot at the dragon. Other accessories, such as a bow and arrow for the figure, are also included.

This set can be enjoyed as it stands, but it also compatible with other items in the Novelmore line or with any other Playmobil products.

With glittery eyes, a forked tongue, and a cheeky smile, this dragon puppet is likely to appeal to tiny dragon fans.

Schleich’s flower dragon is adorable, as are their other two dragons that are available separately, the lava dragon and the ice dragon.

Enjoy these dragons in the water, snow, sand, and dirt because there is nowhere for water or debris to enter, and they can be easily washed in soapy water. If your child insists that dragons should be outside rather than inside, you won’t have to worry.

This adorable full-body dragon costume has detachable wings, a firm swishy tail, and a hood-like head.

Kids step into the costume from the rear, and it closes at the back with Velcro, so it’s easy for kids to put on and take off themselves.

It’s available in two sizes and two color combos so your toddler and your older child can be matching or coordinating scary dragons if they wish.

We have three different Aurora dragons in our household, and they are excellent quality. The plush fabric is soft with a thick pile and carefully stitched. The sparkly fabric on the wings and inside the ears has stood up well to several years of loving cuddles.

A cute dragon toy with an integrated night light, the Toothless Pillow Pet projects stars of three different colors.

The night light has a 20-minute timer, so there’s no need to sneak in and turn it off. Meanwhile, it’s simple for a toddler to re-activate the light if they wake up in the dark.

Fold Toothless in half, and he stands on your bed. Undo the strap on his belly, and he becomes a pillow to be loved.
