About ChildTrek
Natural, Eco-Friendly and Educational Children’s Toys
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.
Sample specialty brands include Kathe Kruse, Grimm’s Spiel & Holz, Baufix, Plan Toys, and Camden Rose. ChildTrek also features toys made under fair-trade agreements to support world prosperity.
