PlanToys Wonky Fruit & Vegetables is a set of imperfect but just as delicious and nutritious fruit and veggies! We can teach children from a young age about the importance of reducing food waste. The funky looking fruit and vegetables at the store are still worth saving and just as edible. This set is also a fun way to play with your imagination! You can cut the food in have and put them back together. The set includes a pretend knife and 5 sliceable pieces of produce: an apple, pear, carrot, tomato and cucumber. The product uses PlanWood material, which is made by grinding the rubber tree from the root to the branches. By adding plant dyes to the mixture and pressing it back into solid form, the result is durable and ecological wooden toys!
PlanToys is the world′s most sustainable toy manufacturer, offering non-toxic and safe as well as educational and child-friendly award-winning rubber wood toys that support children′s development. The company uses rubber trees from private plantations in its products. Most rubber tree plantations are destroyed by burning after the trees have stopped producing latex. PlanToys has chosen a more sustainable way and recycles the trees in its own production.
PlanToys safety:
– Instead of poisoning, the wood is treated with heat to remove impurities (e.g. insects).
– The glue is non-toxic (E-Zero Non-Formaldehyde Glue) and all colors are plant dyes or water-based non-toxic ink.
– All products undergo strict quality control and meet international standards (ASTM, EN71, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, SA 8000)
