Education.com shares a Green Gift Guide for Kids-


Education.com recently scoured the web to discover the best new green toys on the market, for kids aged preschool to high school. They awarded these toys based on their environmental consciousness, their educational value and of course, how fun they are. I'm loving any puzzle that is not plastic (see the tree puzzle by ImagaPLAY)and the cool color filled blocks made from recycled rubberwood. Check out the award winning list here. The site also has lots of interesting parenting and education articles that are worth checking out on a regular basis.

Thanks for featuring our guide Katy! We had a great time pulling it together... with hundreds of toys arriving in our mailbox for review :) Totally agree with your quest for the non-plastic-- with a 5-year old on my hands, it's a real challenge to find things with true fun-factor, that aren't full of phalates!

No problem, Danielle, it was my pleasure. The toys looked really great- wish I had one of each. Thanks for the information and hopefully we can team up again soon.
