We are very excited about Green Toys, a new line of recycled plastic toys that actually meets every item on our check list: good for the environment, safe for children, not manufactured in sweatshops, and really, really cool.
These sturdy toys will withstand whatever your little whirling dervish can dish out. I was really impressed by the strength and thickness of this plastic. But what we love is how eco-friendly Green Toys are. Green toys are made from recycled plastic, utilize minimal packaging materials, and every step of the manufacture occurs in California–saving the energy required for shipping toys from overseas.
Plus, even if you have a baby who puts everything in her mouth, no worries–these toys are all BPA-free and safe for contact with food.
These toys are just like the everyday household objects toddlers always want to grab–but far more durable. Green Toys is offering our readers the chance to win their Indoor Gardening Set, a wonderful opportunity to promote an inquisitive and nurturing spirit in your child. I’d like to have the whole collection for my child.
