This year, over 400 families nationwide have hosted their own Healthy Home Parties. Here’s what they had to say about the experience:
Received all the “goodies” and LOVE everything that came in the box. Can’t wait to share with friends!!
“I just hosted my party in conjunction with the Family Fun Day at my daughter’s pre-school. The kids played outside and we all enjoyed the samples and treats. Parents walked away more informed and thrilled with their coupons. This is such a great idea 
“
“Just hosted my Healthy Home Party yesterday. It was so great! We had a great turn out and I think everyone really appreciated the discussion topics and product information “

Available from Essere Organics, this adorable collection of organic plush is truly natural. Made from certified organic cotton and an eco-friendly natural dye process, these are toys you will not worry about harming your child, besides they are truly delightful. Made by miYim, I really like the organic FairyTale knit collection.
Fairytale Knit Collection characters are soft and naturally colored with embroidered details and natural unprocessed/unbleached cotton filling. Three distinctive characters create the Fariytale knit collection. Pick up your favorite: Baby Victoria Bunny, Baby George Monkey, and Baby Abigail Bear. It’s all in the ingredients! The miYim process is the secret to creating our charming colors. When woven, the cotton is allowed to retain its natural form untreated, unbleached, and unprocessed. It is dyed using only all-natural ingredients derived from nature’s plants and minerals. miYim is water-washed, clean and pure combined to form the world’s first all-natural children’s toy.

Leave a comment to win this rocking boat and stairs from Natural Pod
To celebrate the relaunch of Eco Child’s Play and move to Simple Earth Media, our friends at Natural Pod are sponsoring a green toy giveaway! Just by leaving a comment to this post, you could win a wooden rocking boat and stairs handmade in Canada valued at $224!
Children enjoy rocking back and forth on the rocking boat just as though they are rocking on the ocean waves. Turn it over and it becomes a sturdy set of stairs; children as young as two especially enjoy climbing up and down the stairs, having great fun while they develop coordination and motor skills.
It can also be easily placed on its side and pushed against a wall where it can double as a book shelf or display shelf when it is not in use for boat or step play. We have also seen children turn it into a a play store counter

Any parent knows that children love cardboard boxes. Often, the box a present comes in encourages more creative play than the toy it once contained. Imagination Box Co. was born out of this cardboard creativity.
After raising three kids and seeing how much waste there was in the toy industry, we said, “NO MORE,” and began making many of our children’s toys. An old box became a way to stimulate their creativity and recycle at the same time. They loved them and so did the neighborhood kids. It took about 17 years, but…voila…Imagination Box Co was born!
Made in the USA, Imagination Box Co. toys are completely recyclable and made from 45% post consumer materials. Each set comes with watercolors, so that your child may decorate and assemble their own toy. For my eight-year-old daughter, it has provided hours of entertainment and excitement.
