These toys use only materials are processed showing respect for the planet and all the people and creatures upon it. Made from eco-friendly materials, with plantation-grown rubberwood being a favorite. Rubber trees produce a sap that is used to make latex products. At the end of their latex-producing years (generally 25-30 years) the trees are harvested and new ones planted. But these wonderful trees have one more gift to give us -their beautiful, splinter-free hardwood, from which these quality toys are made. Products for which Rubberwood is not suitable are made from wood from managed forests. But most importantly, these toys help thousands of children worldwide to discover themselves and their world as they navigate the waters of the human Age of Exploration. WARNING: Some pieces have small parts and could produce a choking hazard.
