The Woodpecker Baby Walker by PlanToys Uses Natural Materials
Laura McQuarrie — October 16, 2015 — Eco
PlanToy is a brand that puts a huge emphasis on learning, creative play and sustainability when it comes to product designs like its Woodpecker Baby Walker.
When an infant pushes the baby walker, the two woodpeckers make sounds and encourage kids to developing their gross motor skills and posture. With guidance, the baby walker can be moved in a variety of directions as well as simply back and forth. As well as having a charming nature-inspired design, the baby walker is made from non-toxic natural materials that come from recycled rubberwood trees.
While there are many baby walker designs that are manufactured with colorful plastic pieces, this design proves that there is plenty of merit in the simplicity of natural materials and sustainable thinking.
