Ambitious Green Great Toys

Fancy a new online store for eco-friendly children’s products?  Green product website Ambitious Green calls itself a “fun place to buy great products at the center of today’s environmental issues, concerns, and debates.”

Says Ambitious Green: “We think the environment and education are challenging debates worth having. Every time you make a buying decision you are telling manufacturers and the market what’s important to you.   We share the same frustrations you do - finding products that are natural, functional, friendly and fun. We believe that what’s good  for you can be good for the planet.”

Here are a few of the latest toys at Ambitious Green:

Dancing Alligator, $19.99 (shown above) “This award-winning, wooden alligator pull toy struts his stuff as he wiggles, bobs and click-clacks along.”  These toys are made in Thailand by Plan Toys, a green company that emphasizes socially responsible manufacturing.   It’s green because it’s made of organic rubberwood, non-formaldehyde E-Zero Glue, water-based dye, recycled and recyclable material and soy ink and water-based ink.

Green Toys Cookware & Dining Set, $37.99 “Your young chefs may start eating all their green vegetables after playing with this green cookware set. With a stockpot, skillet and four complete place settings they will have hours of interactive fun with friends.”

Locally produced in California, no product and materials traveled overseas.  Made from curbside recycled milk jugs, third party testing confirms the set contains no BPA, phthalates or lead.

Xeko Mission: Indonesia (Starter Set) $29.99. “Disguised as coffee crates, the briefing kits for Mission:Indonesia have arrived and Xeko Agents are being sought for the most exciting eco-adventure yet.  The animals of Indonesia are in danger…the power to save them is in the cards. Xeko Masters, get ready for the hotspot of “Sundaland” which includes part of Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Borneo.”

This starter set is made from sustainably farmed (FSC certified) wood, recycled and recyclable materials and soy-based paint.  What makes it more special is that 4% of the purchase price will be donated to Conservation International whose programs work to conserve and protect the planet.
