Obsessed with: wooden kids products

I am sort of obsessed with my kids playing with wooden toys instead of plastic ones*.  It has nothing to do with chemicals or environmental concerns, etc.  It is purely aesthetic.  I just feel like if there are going to be toys visible around my house, they should at least be of good design.

Here are some of my favorites.

Play Kitchen by Educo



Dump Truck by Plan Toys



Tool Bench by Melissa and Doug



High Chair by Stokke



Musical Instruments by Plan Toys



Interchangeable Cars by Automoblox



Ride-on Cow by Prince Lion Heart





*As the years have gone on, we have definitely acquired some plastic toys along the way, but the wooden ones are certainly my favorite!

    Thanks Katherine! Charlie got that "wheely cow" as a gift for his first birthday.. and Tessa has been cruising around on it like crazy. It is a really cute toy. We have the smaller size, but there is a large one too.. but I think the small is a perfect size really. There are some cute animals too, a mouse, lady bug, bee...

    Thanks for reading.
