Toys for 'tiels! Recommendations wanted!

Well, I'm going to be getting some money soon. After I buy my winter coat (... and ONLY coat, I hate wearing coats!) I want to get the birds a toy

Now, the toys that they have is a beaded swing (which they don't use. Bonnie used to be a swing fanatic at one point! But that was years ago and she's apparently not in the mood fo rthem), a triangular rope swing that they CAN perch on but is too small for them to 'stand up' in so Bonnie mostly uses it for chewing, a wood and rope toy which they don't bother with, and a toy with keys on the ends and beads in the middle, which again they don't bother with

See the pattern? They are not really toy birds. But I want to get them something that they can get into, so I'm thinking a shreddable toy since Bonnie has three modes when it comes to things; sit on it, eat it or destroy it.

There are two that I've seen; the Palm Caterpiller and a paper toy that has bright orange/yellow paper (like a sun conure!) in it, but I can't seem to find that one to buy

'tiel owners, especially UK'ers, can you recommend something for my toy-disliking birds, especially ones that Bonnie can rip apart with her teeny but powerful beak?

Try contacting Yvonne at pine4parrots, she makes the most amazing toys for birds of all sizes and I've yet to hear of a bird which doesn't like Yvonne's toys!

I mainly buy foot toys and hanging toys but she sells other toys too.

Yvonne's toys are exceptionally safe, she puts a huge amount of thought into the materials she uses.
