Dantoy – my children’s type of toy, and mine too by Natalie Jayne Peeke West Country Correspondent

Like any other parent will be aware, every birthday and Christmas with young children not only produces a mountain of hastily torn wrapping paper but even bigger mountains of boxes and of course plastic from within those boxes plus the pesky wires used to secure the toy in place.  The mess is endless and unfortunately most of it is not recyclable.

I was infuriated when we bought our son a £70 dinosaur toy for one of his birthdays only for it to be broken 3 months later, resulting in a upset boy and a utterly annoyed me, I wasn’t annoyed with my son but myself for insisting we spend that much money on a toy that despite being advertised for his age icould not withstand his rough play. Lesson learnt.

Earlier on this year I discovered Dantoy make a Bioplastic wide range of toys, made of at least 90% sugarcane which is a sustainable material and the Bioplastic is 100% RECYCLABLE. It is a breath of fresh air to find an eco-conscious range that is also high quality, colourful, sturdy and most importantly fun .

The beautifully simply design encourages endless imaginative games together and independently. Building children’s confidence and physical development through play.

The lovely people at Dantoy sent me a playset, I say me but my daughter is the key critic here. She received the Beach time Fun set which includes a bucket, spade, rake and watering can. So far we have not had chance to test it on a beach – however great fun was had playing with the set at Bath time and of course in her bedroom where she fully engaged her imagination and was building unicorn sandcastles on a magical beach.

My daughter said the colours are “pretty” and she has had endless hours of fun and I am confident that her toys will stand the test of time. We can only recommend such a sustainable and child proof playset.
