Back in the golden age of yesteryear, children's toys were almost strictly made of wood and this fine collection of items utilize the tough material for vintage-inspired creations. Wood is one our most coveted natural materials because of its strong consistency, multipurpose characteristic and its ability to be re-grown. As such, it is the perfect material for making children's toys because it doesn't contain any harsh chemicals, doesn't break easily and will outlast any childhood.
The items you'll find here are eclectic in look and feel with a specific attention to the small details like sustainably sourcing the material as opposed to clear-cutting forests. Making the decision to buy one of these items will ensure that not only your children, but your children's children will be able to enjoy them.
