Teaching our children about the benefits, and even necessities, on going green is of vital importance. I adore toy companies that are embracing greener and healthier versions of popular toys, dolls and games and one company has taken a childhood staple to a whole new level. how about trying eco blocks, shaped like legos, on for size?
Not the overabundance of colored plastic, but a wood based clickable, stackable block set! Made from of a composite of cedar tree bark, compressed dust from sawn cedar logs, and coffee beans — as well as just enough polypropylene to hold it all together — these bricks are the greenest building blocks any green parent could dream of.
While they lack the pretty colors that their plastic counterparts come in, I also endorse the muted colors as black canvasses for imagination! They come in just one shape and size, and you can buy a pack of 50 from the Guggenheim for $30.
