Our Earth needs extra help, and at least some toy's makers are working in that demand. There are many options, depending the age of the kid, the material of the toy and the kind of game. Some people said that wood toys are not ecologic, because you have to destroy a tree to be able to play with it. True... but, until we don't invent a way to build something without taking anything borrow to nature, wood toys are great, 'cause at least are biodegradable.
Plastic toys sound worst....but, not all plastic toys are bad. If you recycle plastic milk bottles, and use that plastic to make toys, you will have Green toys like these:
Until the packaging of this products are eco-friendly!. Just pure cardboard and no plastic in the front cover.
At the top, a beautiful Polar Bear from Netto Collection. And watch these other cute options... amazing vegetables on painted wood (from Toys to you) or in organic cotton (from Ecotoytown), you choose.
And remember... when you give a eco-friendly toy to a kid, you are giving some happiness to our planet too... and you are teaching that kid to also care about it.
I recently bought the cotton veggie crate from the same makers of the fruit basket listed above and they are great! My 5 month old adores chewing on them and they are the perfect size for his little hands. They are a terrific eco friendly alternative to those gross plastic teething rings.
