Dwarf hamsters can have most toys that are made for hamsters, because they're small enough to fit in them! Most hamsters like tunnels and plenty of things to hide in! You can also make toys - cardboard boxes, toilet roll tubes make good, fun toys too!

Thanks so much pinkneon, but I meant specific, like a pumpkin food bowl, or something.

It's ok, most users on hamster central are from Europe (which I'm assuming) but you know, maybe somethings on amazon

Hmm I don't know, but I took a small box, mabye 5 inches by 5 inches and cut a hole big enough for a tp tube, hot glued in a tp tube at an angle, and buried it in the substrate after filling it with ripped tp. Zero loves it. I also took 5 tp tube and hot glued them together in a starting from the bottom, 2 on bottom side by side, 2 ore right on top of that, and one in the middle on the very top. I put his treats in it and he climbs all over. You can also make it a popsicle stick house or box or anything.

Different hamsters will prefer different things. I've bought grapevine "jungle gyms" (each is different from one another but you get the gist of it) that some absolutely love to climb all over while others just enjoy using it as a possible cover. There are a bunch of toys you can look at online and my hammies who had them appreciated things like the Oxbow Timothy Hideaway and the Prevue Hendrix hideaway/tunnel https://www.amazon.com/Prevue-Hendry...unnel+and+hide . The first in particular was very popular with my robo Patch though generally ignored by Skippy, my hybrid though both made/makes regular use of the latter tunnel. See saws are hit or miss here--and only if they're covered (none of my hammies like regular see-saws but they will use covered seesaws (this one I like in particular as it's size can fit syrians to use it to)...with dwarves/robos etc.... you can use toilet paper tubes/rolls and just make things with them (my robo's favorite toy/item was a little obstacle-layer/floating second level I made with popsicle sticks and toilet paper tubes)

I find you're usually on to a good thing with simple things like coconut hideouts, small terracotta flower pots & egg boxes all of which make nice hideouts & places to forage for food & treats.
Some kind of container that will work as a sand bath is a must too, not really a toy I guess but they do seem to have a lot of fun in their sand!

In the US Walmart tend to have at least a few bowls which can be used as sand baths(as mentioned not really a toy,but they're still very important to have).Walmart actually have a pumpkin bowl currently for around $2.50 which should be a decent size for a dwarf sand bath.You can find sand baths anywhere though,even in thrift stores,so always keep an eye out for things like that
