Green Toys
As much as we’d like to sail through parenthood worry-free, we have to face the reality that a lot of toys out there aren’t terribly safe or well made. Not only do we have to consider what our kids’ toys are made of and whether they’ll last, these days it’s important to pay attention to where the toys we buy are made and their impact on our global environment and economy.
California-based Green Toys uses processes that limit greenhouse gas emissions--all of their toys are made from recycled milk jugs right there in the Golden State, and their minimal packaging is also created from recycled and recyclable corrugated boxes.
The best part is: They're FUN! It's no wonder these wonderful American-made toys have been touted as the next big thing on shows like Today and Live with Regis & Kelly, and magazines like Family Fun.
