Our children’s safety is at the top of our priority list, but one thing that we may overlook is the toys they play with every day. Many of today’s popular toys are manufactured overseas and do not meet the safety requirements of their American counterparts.

Many toy companies are “going green,” to help the environment, while producing enjoyable toys at the same time. One company in particular, Down to Earth Toys, has been providing kids with toys that are safe for them and the earth.

Carrin and her family live in Michigan, and she began making toys because she felt the ones she found were unsafe for her son and the environment because of their manufacturing. She and her husband were raised in families that fixed things when they were broken rather than simply throwing them out. They always appreciated the things they had and wanted to get the most out of them.

The toys they produce are eco-friendly, ready to inspire imagination, and safe for children of any age. Ninety percent of the products on their online site are made in America, and there is a link to the vast American-made category on their homepage. Living simply is imperative when it comes to helping our economy, and this is the essence of their products. They always have and always will design and produce simple toys that go easy on our environment while providing entertainment for every child!
