My Thoughts

I am always looking for safe toys for my children.  Its important to know exactly what your toys are made us, and that there is no lead paint or other things that can cause brain damage or make children sick. At Green Toys, I found...well, I found Green Toys that are cute, fun and safe for kids of all ages. Plus they are environmentally friendly because they are made from recycled plastics. Even the package they come in made from recycled paper and soy based ink.

I love all of the toys from Green Toys, but the Rescue Boat & Helicopter   is special for a variety of reasons. Of course, I love that is a green product, made from recycled material, but that's only one perk, the largest being that it's two toys in one! You get a boat and a helicopter, two of my son's favorite things! This toy is very well made. It's larger than most toy boats or helicopters, sturdy. The the propellers really move and the boat actually floats in water. It even includes and adorable little bear and duck action figure to pilot the helicopter  and caption the boat.  There are no tiny pieces that break off, and it can be used both indoors and out. When kids are finished, the toy is easy to clean. You can wipe it down with water or even toss it in the dishwasher. Best of all, it's completely kid powered, so no batteries are required. This rescue boat & helicopter is a new take on a classic and a perfect toy for preschoolers. 

The Rescue Boat and Helicopter is only one example of the wonderful toys you can find at Green Toys. They also have dump trucks, fire trunks, tea sets, indoor gardening sets, jump robes, and more. To learn more about this great company and all they have to offer, you can check out their website. While you're there, be sure to sign up for their newsletter to keep up to date on the latest arrivals. You can also follow them on twitter or become their fan on face book. If you have a child, teach them early that being green can really make a difference with the wonderful toys from Green Toys.
