Put simply, an educational toy should educate. It should teach a child about a particular subject or help a child develop a particular skill.
Whether it be recognising the letters of the alphabet and numbers. Developing patience whilst completing a puzzle. Or simple abc blocks helping babies develop hand/eye coordination. Any educational toy will encourage a reasonable milestones within the appropriate age group.
More than ever before, the toy market is flooded with products claiming to be educational. These are often highly expensive and the actual benefit of these compared to a simpler cheaper toy is unproven.

A large majority of the wooden toys are educational. Just another reason to choose them over their plastic counterparts!
