Toys for Tots
If you’re like most hip, eco-conscious modern parents, then you’re already ensuring that your children are getting pesticide free, organic meals, but, as you know children have been known to put a lot of other things in their mouth too. Babies are notorious for putting their toys in their mouths, which may seem rather harmless, except when you consider that most toys are made of plastic, and plastics contain highly toxic PVC and VOC’s which can have detrimental effects on your children, and the environment.
Fortunately there easy solutions. You can go back to basics and purchase FSC-certified wood toys, instead of plastic ones, or you can even get organic toys. But the best way of all to keep your kids green? Send them outside. It’s cheap, sustainable, and let’s them use their imagination to play games, which can be better than the real thing.
