Eco-friendly toys

Built by hand with bamboo and care, this charming roller coaster in a Meghalaya village has sparked global awe — and reminds us that joy doesn’t need electricity.

These educational kits on Amazon not only provide hours of at-home entertainment, but your kids will actually learn about stuff like chemistry, astronomy, and the world map—all while having fun.

These traditional wooden toys have been made since the time of Tipu Sultan but today, only a few hundred toy makers remain. One organization is on a mission to help this eco-friendly craft regain its lost glory!

Keeping it simple but not discounting on the fun factor at all, Sonal Gawde and Shreyes Menon have proved it that any occasion can be celebrated without generating mounds of waste—be it food or non-biodegradable elements!
