Every toy is made from renewable, sustainable materials and produced with earth friendly practices. Their most popular and well know items are puzzles.

Colorific and PuzzlePlay puzzles are made from plantation grown rubberwood, an environmentally friendly hardwood.

I absolutely love ImagiPLAY puzzles. The first time I saw them was in my daughter's Montessori classroom in 2006. They are made of beautifully crafted, sturdy, 3D pieces. Children can play with each piece on their own and then put them back together in the unique interwoven style. The puzzles help teach numbers or letters, colors, animals, as well as general problem solving skills. And, when put together they can stand up to become a really cute decoration for a child's room.

I've only found them in small specialty toy stores and online.

ImagiPLAY is part of the Eco-Toy Alliance (ETA), a collaboration of 4 toy companies dedicated to helping consumers understand the befefits of earth friendly toys and the importance of raising children to respect and protect the planet.

Other companies include Green Toys Inc., Hosung, and Sprig Toys.

The ETA offers 5 Ways to "Green" your kids' toy box.
