child star: Rattles and Sand Spheres

June 25, 2010

I’m an auntie (again) today! A lovely niece to add to my fine collection. Today’s count is 3 nephews, 4 nieces and another on the way.

I love these beautiful wooden rattles. Sustainable materials and non-toxic, they are a nice switch from the brightly coloured plastic toys in the mass-produced baby world.

Now there is a place for brightly coloured plastic – the BEACH! A toy that’s easy on the eyes, inspires creativity and you only have to be 3 to use them.

Green Toy tea set

Cool packaging, cooler toys. Made from plastic milk jugs in California, all Green Toys products are packaged in slick recycled corrugated boxes with no plastics, cellophane or twist-ties, and are 100% recyclable. Check out the recycling truck! Available from one of my favorite local toy stores, Buddies Toys, in Estevan Village or Beacon Avenue in Sidney. Can’t find a website for Buddies! Let me know if you know of one. They can be reached at (250) 595-6501‎.
