The Entertainer Discount Codes & Cashback 2019

More about The Entertainer

Home to kids’ classics and family favourites

So – what was your 'brand' when you were growing up? Maybe you were a LEGO kid, eagerly turning blocks into cars, trains and spaceships; maybe you preferred ready-made kit like Playmobil or Sylvanian Families, which let you ease off on the construction bit and get on with inventing games and stories. All three are favourites at The Entertainer, along with a wide range of other tried-and-tested classics (and some newer crazes such as Fingerlings). There's a Brand section of the site, so you can easily jump straight to the characters and collections your kids love. What's awesome is that you can purchase all the latest toys for less when you use The Entertainer promo codes from this page!

Creative play for all ages

While you can get creative with toy sets, there's something to be said for going really hands-on: we're talking clay, paints, glue, beads and more. That's right, the messy stuff. There's a whole Arts and Creative Play section on The Entertainer, with everything from 3D model sets to jewellery-making kits. Obviously some tools and materials aren't suitable for younger children, so the site's age filters come in really handy here; you can jump straight to music and light toys for the youngest tots to science sets and spirographs (remember those?) for older ones.

Outdoor games and activities

We've played with LEGO, we've done some crafting… are you ready for some outdoor time? From simple footballs to colourful playhouses, The Entertainer has masses of ideas for making the most of your garden. In fact, there's a whole Outdoor Toys section, broken down into key categories like Sports, Slides and Ride-ons. Look under Blasters for Nerf guns, darts and masks, as well as powerful water pistols; for slightly more sedate fun, head to the Bubbles section for a cool bubble mower, or the Sandpit section for water play tables, complete with buckets, paddles and wheels to help little ones conduct their first physics experiments. And soak each other through, obviously.

Making learning fun

When the kids graduate from 'experimenting' with water and sand, give them a shot at doing some real science. There's a Science section under Arts and Creative Play, and it's packed with slime, gadgets and experiment kits. Pick up sets that will teach kids to grow crystals, build working rockets or make their own soap; or give them a junior microscope or telescope so they can get a new perspective on the world around them. It's fun now, but it could be a first step towards a lifelong interest – or even a career. The Electronic and Educational Toys section is worth a look too, with masses of colourful learning tools from the likes of VTech, Fisher-Price and Tomy.

Rewards and extras when you sign up

If you're going to be using The Entertainer regularly – and if you have kids, that's pretty likely – it's worth taking the time to register. It makes purchasing slightly quicker, but it also allows you to enjoy some special Entertainer discount codes and create Wishlists, which are great for keeping track of what they want in the run-up to Christmas or birthdays. Sign up for Jack’s Birthday Club when you join and you'll get discount codes for your child's birthday each year, helping you treat them that little bit more. Do check the terms and conditions though, as special offers might not be eligible for The Entertainer cashback.

Find it easily, get it fast

We've already talked about some of the handy sections and filters on The Entertainer – we think it's a surprisingly easy site to shop when you take into account the size of the range. It's also worth keeping an eye on the Sale section, where you'll find multi-buy offers, 'penny sales' (buy one, get another for a penny) and heavily discounted items with The Entertainer discount codes. As ever, we'd advise you to check the T&Cs if you buy discounted or sale items, because they aren't always eligible for The Entertainer cashback. When it comes to getting hold of your toys, that's easy too. The Entertainer has free standard delivery and free Click & Collect on orders over a certain amount – and with Click & Collect your item could be ready at your local branch in as little as 30 minutes. Use the store locator on the website if you're not sure where your local branch is. You can also pay a little more for other delivery options, including Express (next day) and Custom Day (delivered on a day of your choice).

And they give to charity too!

Many retailers give to charity, but The Entertainer goes all out, supporting worthy causes in a number of ways. A full 50% of The Entertainer's staff contribute through the Payroll Giving scheme, and in stores the Pennies scheme encourages customers to round up their purchase to the nearest pound and give the extra away. Most impressive of all, the business gives a full 10% of its profits to charity every year. Its total annual fundraising frequently tops £1 million. Great toys, great prices, and great values too.

5 ways to make the most of The Entertainer Cashback

Phew. We've given you a lot of information about The Entertainer – now let's get shopping. In this section we'll give you a few ideas on how to earn that cashback…

1. Pick out the perfect present

Time to talk about that present finder we mentioned earlier. It's genuinely handy, delivering suggestions based on the recipient's age and gender, and your budget. Top tip: if you're not keen on the division of boys' and girls' toys, you don't have to choose one or the other – the widget has a Both option too. If you already know you're buying for a fidget-spinner or Hatchimal obsessive, you can plan your buy with a Wishlist, or just benefit from The Entertainer's everyday low prices. There are also gift cards available, but do check T&Cs first, as gift card purchases sometimes aren't eligible for cashback.

2. Entertain the family on a rainy day

Drizzle. Cloud. Gloom. We get our share of it here in the UK, but don't fight it – just make the best of it. Use our cashback deals to stock up on rainy-day games and toys so you can keep everyone happy and entertained next time the weather lets you down. Think jigsaw puzzles, board games and dressing-up sets. The Entertainer has everything from simple foam puzzles for tots to complex 3D jigsaws that'll test the whole family. It's also great for picking up classic tabletop games such as Monopoly, Risk and Trivial Pursuit.

3. Pick up nursery toys for parents-to-be

When there's a baby on the way, toys are rarely the first thing on your mind – as a parent you're focused on buying the essentials and preparing for the big day. So if you know an expecting couple, why not help them out with a few little things to brighten the nursery? Mobiles and tactile toys are a great gift idea, and come into their own as baby learns to focus, grab and hold. You'll find them in the Baby and Preschool Toys section, which has more precise age filters than some of the other sections, ranging from Newborn to 4 years old. As little one grows, you can come back and use the category filters to shop for new kinds of toy, from paddling dolphins for bathtime to preschool electronics that teach basic literacy and numeracy.

4. Dress up the kids as their favourite characters

Costumes aren't just for fancy dress parties. Kids love them at any time – whenever we see little ones at the shops in PJ Masks gear or fairy wings, we internally shout, "Yes! Enjoy it while you can!" Pretending and roleplaying are a big part of development too, so there are loads of reasons to keep adding to that dress-up box. What we like about The Entertainer's costume section is that it includes roleplay toys too; so as well as character costumes, princess dresses and face paint you can pick up mini kitchens, mini Henry hoovers, wooden food sets and more.

5. Get your hands on play kit for the garden

You don't need to spend a lot to help kids get into sport. When they're really young, a simple foam football lets them practice kicking and throwing, and bat-and-ball sets get that all-important hand-eye coordination working. The Entertainer has loads of basic equipment like that for well under £10, but it also stocks bigger items that'll help kids improve as they grow into their new hobbies – think complete cricket sets, foldaway football goals and proper training footballs.
