Recycling Milk Jugs Does a Planet Good
Date: October 23, 2009 | Category: Kids, Toys
“Turn off the T.V. and go outside and play with your recycling truck!” Never thought you’d hear mom barking those orders, did you? With Green Toys‘ assortment of made-in-the-USA, toxic-free toys (the main ingredient is recycled milk jugs), it’s a fresh change from the aisles of chemically coated toys this generation has come to accept as standard.
No external coatings on Green Toys means there’s no worry of lead paint contamination. Shipped with minimal packaging (and what’s there is 100% recyclable), you can choose from a tool set, kitchen cookware, indoor gardening tools, sandbox essentials and more. No matter which toy you choose, on average, every pound of recycled milk jugs used in the making of Green Toys saves enough electricity to power a TV set for three whole weeks!
Ecofabulous recommends that kids get a minimum of 2-3 doses of recycled milk jug toy time a day - it does a planet good!

Their toys are adorable. I like the feel of the milk jug plastic, too. I’ve also seen some nice outdoor furniture made from recycled milk jugs.

Expect a lot more recycled kids things over the next few years. Let’s face it kids will play with anything colourful and fun
