Manufactured in America, Green Toys brand toys are made of a new generation of environmentally friendly bioplastic material derived from renewable, sustainable resources like corn.
Robert von Goeben, co-founder of Green Toys, said:
?We've been involved in creating fun and innovative toys for years, but with Green Toys we feel that we're doing more than providing children with entertainment. We're also offering a real alternative for consumers looking for earth-friendly toys.
?Our products are a blast for kids, important to parents, and good for the earth. What could be more fun than that??
The environmental credentials even make it to the colouring and the packaging where biodegradable colourants and recycled paper are being used.
Laurie Hyman, co-founder of Green Toys, said:
?As the mother of two young children, I understand parents wanting to do their part to improve and preserve our world for our children. Additionally, by offering children toys that send a positive message about protecting our planet helps to educate the younger generation about how to make good choices for our environment. It may even create young ambassadors for Mother Nature.?
Green Toys' initial products will be available in shops in America from the autumn, and will include a Tea Set, Indoor Gardening Kit, a Cookware and Dinning Set and the Sand Play Set. At the the moment, there are no plans to sell the toys in the United Kingdom.
