Seafood-Inspired Wooden Toy Sets

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Tender Leaf Toys' Fish Crate Encourages Imaginative Play

— February 11, 2021 — Life-Stages
Tender Leaf Toys' Fish Crate set is inspired by seafood and encourages hands-on, imaginative play. Known for its wide selection of artisan, handcrafted toys, the brand specializes in products geared towards children aged 18 months and older all the way to 3+ years.

This charming Fish Crate set is "made with soft fabric and filled with a sold wood lobster, plaice, mackerel, and herring, whitebait, prawn and scallop." The product is designed to be paired with Tender Leaf Toys' play kitchen or market toys or one's own play kitchen setup and comes with a market-inspired fabric basket that toys can be displayed in.

Each product is durable, brightly painted and educational in addition to being adorable and is a great way to encourage hands-on play over screen time.
Trend Themes
1. Seafood-inspired Wooden Toy Sets - The rise of wooden toy sets that are inspired by seafood could offer opportunities for ethical and sustainable toy production, particularly for children's toys.
2. Artisanal Handcrafted Toys - The demand for artisanal, handcrafted toys that are safe and educational can create opportunities for small-scale toy manufacturers.
3. Imaginative Play Toys - The growth of imaginative play toys can offer opportunities for developing creativity and problem-solving skills among children while reducing screen time.
Industry Implications
1. Toy Manufacturing - This trend highlights opportunities to explore ethical, sustainable and educational toy production methods while satisfying the demand for non-digital, interactive toys.
2. E-commerce - The growth of artisanal and ethically-made toys could expand opportunities for e-commerce platforms and small to medium-sized businesses to reach a wider market offering quality goods.
3. Children's Education - This trend suggests opportunities for companies that focus on developmental and educational products for children, such as wooden toys that enhance fine motor skills, imagination, problem-solving, and creativity.
