Eco-Friendly Baby Toys! Our Guide to Safe Toys For Ages 1-3

Square

It is pretty obvious that having eco-friendly baby toys is important. Whatever you give your baby will naturally end up in your baby’s mouth or nose. And then, there is that whole thing about babies growing up very rapidly.

So those toys you painstakingly picked out end up in the trash or the recycling bin, or the thrift store just a few years later.

We here at Eco-Friendly believe the key to living our greenest life lies in those little details. And baby toys are one of those little details we don’t want anyone to over-look.

We will keep it short. Ya’ll have kids. You can’t have that much time to sitting around reading the whys and why nots of baby toys. We like to assume our readers already know why it matters that what you give your baby shouldn’t be harmful for them or the Earth. We hand picked out the best toys that are free of plastic, toxic finishes, PVC, BPA, or phthalates. Or anything else we can’t pronounce.

So, here we go!
