Safe toys for kids this holiday: Good thing to buy if you ask me

11.07.2008


Oh man I’ve been so swept up in election-y matters that I totally forgot to mention -The second annual Cool Mom Picks Safer Toy Guide is here.

We’ve rounded up truly safe toys for kids from baby teethers and rattles to cool ride-ons and handmade dolls so that whatever you get the little people in your life, you can rest a little easier, support some great small artists and boutique owners, and keep more plastic junk from China out of the landfills.

Also, you’ll save a crapload on batteries.

Plus if you add the purdy button above on your own blog you could win $600 worth of awesome goodies for the kids (check the guide for details). Pretty fair trade if you ask me.

I put it up on my site. I can use the good karma for sure. ;) If I could possibly win something, even better. I’ve never won a dam thing in my entire freaking life though, so I won’t be holding my breath.

Hooray for no batteries! I never replace them anyway. And I will definitely add the “purdy” to my site.
