We’re running a little late with this but this was the finale to our Green Month – A Green Toy Giveaway!
More and more toy companies are taking on the label “Eco Friendly” and are getting creative by using recycled products like milk containers to make their toys. I think there is something to be said about keeping things simple, one can only house so many whirly gig toys in one house! Give me a set of quiet blocks any day!
So we have a little giveaway to help you start or add to your collection of Eco Friendly Toys –
Prize number 1: (1) 200 piece hot color CitiBlocs set
High quality wooden construction blocks which inspire both traditional building and modern design. The secret behind Citblocs is that every piece is exactly the same shape and size. Each block is precisely cut from Grade A Radiata Pine from certified renewable forests in New Zealand. Citiblocs building requires no glue, no snaps, no connectors and no magnets: just gravity, balance and imagination. Building with Citiblocs is simple: stack one block on top of another. Their specific size and shape and weight allows building that is simply not possible with other building toys. Build a small cabin by the lake or a tower that reaches the stars. Citiblocs are recommended for ages 3+. Citiblocs are certified safe and non-toxic and have been tested and approved according to all Consumer Product Safely Improvement Act (CPSIA) regulations.
Prize Number 2: (1) Play Draw Create set from innovativeKids’ green start line:
The kit can be played over and over again making it a great lesson in living the green life.
Included with each kit are a magnetic board, 5 write-on/wipe off markers, over 30 magnetic play pieces and carrying handle. Learning and creativity have never been so fun.
