Rings and Sticks Building Set

by admin February 10, 2015

If you wish to develop creativity in your kid, then you need to help nurture it at the earlier stages of development. As the child grows, that creativity may gradually lessen as he or she begins to learn about rules and such. These rules can easily limit what a child can and cannot do, even though these life rules are essential as well. Nurture that creativity by providing kids with toys to play with like the Rings and Sticks Building Set.

The Rings and Sticks Building Set is a simple and yet intriguing set of toys for kids. It is a set of rings and sticks that the kids can use to build some of the images from the included challenge cards. There are 8 double-sided challenge cards showing colorful images or scenes made up by a number of circles and rectangles. The challenge for the kids is to try and build the same images using the large bag of rings and sticks available to them. There are sticks, rings as well as half rings of different sizes and colors to choose from and create the different images. As the kids get the hang of it, they can also get creative and make up a different and unique scene or picture coming from their own imagination.

The Rings and Sticks Building Set can help kids develop manual dexterity as well as their visual recognition skills. They will be able to learn how to match different colors and shapes to create a certain image. The building set also helps nurture their inner creativity as they get to learn how to make personal scenes and images using the Rings and Sticks Building Set. It is an ideal toy for kids from 3 years old and above and is available at Fat Brain Toys for $19.

Kids can then do it all over again.

Green Toys Chef Set: Made with Recycled Milk Jugs

by admin April 5, 2013

The most discerning parents (that’s us) know that toys made of plastic should be avoided. Most plastic toys are made of Bisphenol A (BPA), which was recently declared a toxic substance in Canada while it has been banned in the United States as material for baby bottles.

While BPA has been used for years in plastic products, it has recently been found to have hormone-like properties. Exposure to BPA can cause a variety of health problems from obesity to cancer.

Thankfully, there are a number of plastic toys that are guaranteed safe for our kids. Green Toys have been making toys made of 100% recycled milk jugs, saving energy and reducing greenhouse gas. At the same time, their toys are free of BPA and meets FDA specifications for food use, so we wouldn’t have to worry about the health of our kids.

Like any other products from Green Toys, this chef set is made in the United States so you are assured that it is made with high quality and stringent safety standards.

This Green Toys Chef Set is a hit on my daughter. She would even play with her own chef set while I cook dinner or take it outside and play chef with the other kids. This set consists of a stock pot with lid, a skillet, ladle, and slotted spatula. When they get dirty, I simply put the Green Toys Chef Set in the dishwasher.

The Green Toys Chef Set is available in Amazon with a listed price of $19.99.
