Natural, Organic, Wooden Toys for a Green Generation

ChildTrek specializes in unique, natural and eco-friendly toys for babies and toddlers. ChildTrek is founded on the belief that the best toys are good for kids and planet. They contribute to positive childhood development and stimulate intelligence. They are fundamentally safe and super fun!

Good for Kids and Planet

ChildTrek believes that one of the best legacies we can leave our children is a healthy, vibrant and prosperous planet. To that end, ChildTrek carefully selects toys and other children's goods that promote sustainable existence with our beautiful world.

The vast majority of the toys you'll find here are made of natural, biodegradable, recyclable, and/or recycled materials. They are made of sustainable wood and/or natural fabrics such as wool and cotton. A few are made of cotton and polyester blends and very little new plastic is used. Others are made of reclaimed or recycled plastic using environmentally-sound practices. The toys are finished with vegetable or other natural dyes, polished with beeswax, painted with water-based and non-toxic paints, or retain their natural, unfinished beauty.

Toys offered at ChildTrek meet or exceed North American & European safety standards. They are child-safe & non-toxic.

ChildTrek also features toys made under fair-trade practices to promote world prosperity.

ChildTrek Advisory Team

The ChildTrek Advisory Team is made up of parents, educators, child-specialists, business owners, and accomplished professionals. Advisory members review toys, write blogs and parenting articles, and advise ChildTrek on how best to serve its customers. 

Successful Parenting

ChildTrek wants to help parents be successful. It dedicates a section on its web site called Parents' Corner, a collection of resources where parents and caregivers can find information and helpful tips about such topics as How to Care for a Newborn, What a Toddler Needs, and How to Develop Your Child's Language Skills.

Corporate Giving

In the spirit of offering high-quality toys that are good for kids and planet, ChildTrek is committed to doing good in the world. That's why we are donating a portion of profits to charitable organizations such as the Smile Train and the Nature Conservancy.

The Smile Train is an international charitable program that provides free cleft surgery to children around the world. 100% of donations go towards helping children have a new smile and a new chance at life.

The Nature Conservancy is an international organization committed to the preservation of the plants, animals, and natural communities that represent the Earth's diversity by protecting the habitat they need to survive.
