What are the benefits of wooden toys?

Simple wooden toys teach quiet and peaceful lessons in physics, cause and effect, object permanence, creativity, problem solving and many other fundamental topics. However, wooden toys tend to be quieter, allowing for a quieter play environment that is free from the noise (not to mention the lights and movement) of many plastic toys. Wooden toys are built to last. They can withstand the wear and tear of everyday play and don't break or wear out as easily as plastic toys.

This means that you can feel good about investing in wooden toys, knowing that they will last for many years. Non-organically manufactured toys, such as plastic and metal, are known to contain toxic substances such as BPA, PVC and, in the case of older toys, lead paint. Exploring young children's senses involves putting toys in their mouths. The advantage of wooden toys is due to their organic, non-toxic and naturally antibacterial constitution.

Unlike plastic toys, which, when broken, can leave sharp, irregular edges and small pieces that can be swallowed. In addition, wooden toys are more durable and recyclable. When covered with an eco-friendly, low-toxin lacquer, wooden toys also have the added safety benefit of using fewer chemicals than plastic toys. Wooden toys don't have electronic parts or voice commands to tell your child what to do.

As an organic, renewable and sustainably sourced product, of course, wooden toys are a much more environmentally friendly option than plastic. Oh, wooden toys, how easy it is to faint at their Instagrammable style placed perfectly on top of a toy box or perched on a children's bookshelf. Drying them in natural sunlight is a particularly good way to kill leftover germs (although be careful in very bright sunlight, which can cause some wooden toys to lose color or crack). The natural textures of wooden toys stimulate the child's senses, as they invite them to touch, feel and explore every surface of the toys.

After all, you just have to see how much fun a child has with a wooden stick and how completely new worlds can be created with just a small piece of wood. Yes, wooden toys have a natural antibacterial quality, so they won't be as affected by germs as plastic toys. Some of the classic wooden toys, such as puzzles and building blocks, help children learn arithmetic, motor skills and problem solving. In addition, most wooden toys are handmade and the quality of the workmanship ensures that the final product meets the highest standards.

Plastic toys in bright and bright colors can overstimulate, stress and exhaust a child, in contrast to the minimalist, healthy and non-intrusive nature of wooden toys. With the advantage of being stronger, wooden toys tend to live longer than many plastic toys that break or crack easily. However, as with plastic toys, all quality wooden toys are tested to the highest safety standards and come with guidance on the appropriate age of use, which means that wooden toys are as safe, if not more so, than plastic toys. There are wooden blocks for younger children, wooden puzzles for toddlers, and even wooden board games for older children.
