I have become increasingly concerned about the dangers associated with plastic baby toys as I read more and more about them in the media everyday.

While plastic toys are frequently and easily destroyed, wooden toys are designed to withstand damage and last far longer than their plastic counterparts. Without high-tech, plastic toys with all the imagineable bells and whistles, children will have the opportunity to enjoy a more value-driven type of imaginative play with traditional wooden toys. They will be able to engage in meaningful play, developing cognitive and problem-solving skills that will carry throughout the rest of their lives.
