On a mission to prove that playfulness doesn't dim with age, many fun-loving designers turn to childhood classics for inspiration. On top of sophisticated temporary tattoosadult coloring books, and alcoholic ice cream, this design approach has popped up as another fun trend: toys for grown-ups.

Traditionally made with only children in mind, most toys are abandoned once adulthood hits. However, thanks to today's fun-loving creators, playthings are no longer just for kids. In this selection of cool toys for adults, you'll find everything from DIY kits and advanced puzzles to age-appropriate dolls and grown-up-friendly dinosaurs. With creative adults in mind, each product promotes fun in a novel and nostalgic way guaranteed to bring out your inner child.
