Plan Toys City for Summer Fun

This summer make it a goal to skip the plastic, overly packaged toys and grab something for the kiddos that’s a lot more eco-friendly. If you haven’t heard of green king of toys, Plan Toys, it’s time to check them out.
Plan Toys makes all their toys with natural fertilizer-free rubberwood recycled from rubber trees that are no longer able to produce latex. Plan Toys are assembled with a proprietary non-formaldehyde glue and contain no formaldehyde emission (E-Zero). Their toys are painted with non-toxic, water based dyes free from lead and mercury. Even their shipping is eco-friendly; all Plan Toys are packaged in recycled and recyclable materials and packaging is printed with soy and water based inks. PLUS Plan Toys uses sustainable energy methods (solar cell and biomass) for their plant machinery that kiln-dries their wood and paint.
Oh and did I mention their toys rock?! In my opinion, your best bet for summer-long fun is to hit the Plan Toys City Collection. You’ll find dollhouses, cars, small people, a hyper cool eco-charger station, pets, gardening supplies, and more.All their toys have eco-aspects that teach littles about going green, like wind turbines and solar panels on the dollhouses, recycling bins, and more.
You can find Plan Toys all over the place, but Kangaroo Boo always has a great selection, including the entire Eco Town by Plan Toys shown above and Oompa carries a huge selection of Plan Toys, including extras like all the furniture you need for a Plan Toys dollhouse.
Love Plan toys, and since you do as well, you might want to check out the incredibly adorable Juicy Bugs and accessories. The cuteness factor on these handmade felted toys is off the charts. Love this picnic set http://www.dreamalittle7.com/antpicnic.html
Hey Lynn. That’s so funny – I LOVE juicy bugs. I can’t believe you mentioned them. No one else likes them like like I do (yet). Now I have a partner in crime
