GREEN Tea for Earth Day!

It seems to be harder and harder to find toys that are creative and multi-purpose, not licenced, or noise-making! At least, in the supermarkets, department stores and big-name toy stores. Fortunately there are a few toy stores that specialize in high-quality toys that inspire creative play. Bumblebee Toys is one of those! Everything they carry has been specially selected to bring lots of fun for kids, be durable and well-made – play-things that kids will go back to over and over again. Most of their toys are made from natural materials; anything plastic is guaranteed PVC-free and safety-inspected.

Jonathan and Daniel were sent a Green Toys Tea Set. They both love making and pouring tea, and serving tea and “snacks” to their “visitors!”  It has been great to see them play TOGETHER for a while, both keeping up the imaginative play! The Tea Set includes a tea pot with lid, a sugar bowl with lid, a cream jug, 4 cups, 4 sauces and 4 teaspoons. You should see them stirring their brews! :)

The tea set components are made from fun colours and are very sturdy – they've survived a few falls from the table onto our tiled kitchen floor (many other things have broken under such treatment). Designed with no external coatings, eliminating the fear of lead paint, the tea set comes packaged in only recycled cardboard.

Something special about Green Toys: all their toys are made from environmentally friendly materials (recycled plastic milk jugs), and contain no BPA or phthalates, helping reduce fossil fuel use and CO2 emissions – GREEN all around!

Just in time for Earth Day, Bumblebee Toys has a couple of great promotions for Glimpse readers!
