Simple wooden toys that your kids will simply adore
I never mean to, but I occasionally have a weird mind slip and underestimate the power of simplicity. When a package arrived in the mail from Gween, bearing six pieces of pretty, shiny wood meant to put together into a windmill shape, I wasn’t sure my kids would like it. But you know what?
They loved it.
But the experts at Gween knew that they would. The
cool windmill (officially named “Gusto”) is one of five models of stackable toys that can
be put together in different ways–which works on kids’ motor skills,
piques their problem-solving interests, and (if my kids’ total
absorption in the toy is anything to go by) is just pure fun.

And
the toys are also eco-friendly fun: they’re handmade with wood from
sustainable trees, colored with natural dyes, and completely free of
synthetic materials. Even the packaging is made from recycled materials.
And a portion of Gween’s profits are used to ensure that the kids of
the artisans who make the toys have future educational opportunities.

I never thought twice about diapering my son with the eco-not-so-conscious disposable diaper. I have to admit, I thought that cloth diapers were still big cotton towels that required safety pins, manual dexterity, and a whole lot of free time.
Don’t get any sick ideas, dear readers. We’ve all seen our share of those softies and we certainly don’t need a stuffed one of THOSE laying around the house. 
When my 3 year old was a newborn we planned a trip to Europe and before I could say auf viedersehn, my brain pictured all the filthy traveling potties we would encounter while changing her diaper.
