Little man puts everything in his mouth. Because of this, we try to only by him organic or BPA-free toys. The problem with most organic toys? They tend to be rather muted in color, and as a result he doesn't find them very interesting or appealing.
Usually, he totally bypasses them, making the investment in a safer toy a waste of money. Recently I was contacted by ZuToys, creator of Zubels, fabulous, organic, vibrantly colorful toys such as the one featured above. That cute little monkey "Morgan", from the Long Arms collection, is made from organic cotton yarn with polyester filling and is filled with rattling balls. Needless to say, little man tried to eat it, but at least I feel safe about that.
Zubels offers a variety of cute toys that will appeal to babies with their bright contrast, noise, and textures. Other great Zubels include this pirate and fireman Frank:
There are ballerinas, critters, insects, Zubels of different professions, and all are hand-knit, cotton and non-toxic. Many are organic, and you can view the full catalog of non-toxic, safe and organic toys on their site. You'll also find teethers, rattles, hand puppets and holiday Zubels (Santa and reindeers), many whimsical toys to provide your babies and children with lots of safe, creative fun. Especially take a look at the sea creatures, they are really beautiful! Red crabs, pink flamingoes, little seahorses, and more make up a fun collection of Zubels ocean critters. Another plus? The colors don't fade with washing. I toss all little man's plush toys into the wash after he chews on them a couple of days, and many, especially the organic ones, start to fade dramatically. His little monkey Zubel kept its vibrant color, so he still finds it chew-worthy.
