Even though we’re all grown up, we’re suckers for cute toys in this office. That’s why when we got the Sand Play Set ($19.99) from Green Toys, we just fell in love (and desperately wanted the other adorable toys the company makes). The sand toys include a bucket, rake, shovel and sand castle mold and they’re all just cute as a button and super sturdy. Better yet, these toys are made of recycled milk containers with no traceable amounts of phthalates or bisphenol-A and no coatings, so there’s no worry about that dangerous lead paint that’s been turning up in so many toys. Throw in the fact that they’re also made right here in the United States and you can’t get more feel-good about a toy. Green Toys also makes a Tea Set ($24.99), Cookware and Dining Set ($39.99) and Indoor Gardening set ($29.99) and they all look just as adorable as the sand toys (just check out the photo above if you have any doubts). Now we’re just waiting for summer to arrive so we can hit the beach with our eco-friendly sand toys.
