I really agree with the posted article “Children's Toys - The Educational Benefits Of Wooden Toys” by Robert Thomson that the wooden toys of yester year are really coming back as parents realize the learning benefit for their children. My daughter loves her blocks and wood puzzles it as if she gives each piece its own identity, job, task in her pretend play. A lot of the great toys Kidsmart has chosen are wooden and many are eco friendly as well.
Green Wooden Blocks by Plan Toys (T-PTWB)
In the hands of your imaginative child, Plan Toys 50 wooden blocks, are quickly transformed into skyscrapers and bridges, cathedrals and barns. This set contains 36 natural and 14 multicolored blocks. All constructed of wood. Great block set for the value. The timber used is plantation rubber wood, which is recovered from old rubber trees after they no longer generate latex and are due for burning. They process and kiln-dry the timber, in a chemical-free environment; no wood preservatives are used whatsoever. The paint which they use to varnish Plan Toys products is non-toxic water-based paint which has been found to be safe for children and non-polluting in natural water sources. They also use natural latex glue to do the joining work on their toys. This is truly a green company!
