Go Green: Eco Clay

Kids Play

I love finding great products that have been created by a mother through the eyes of their children. As mothers we start to look at everything our children eat, play with, sleep on. We analyze every part of our their little lives. We want the best for them.

Eco Clay™ has been created by a mother as she started to wonder about all the toxins in everyday products. This natural play dough is based on organic products where possible and is biodegradable. Available in six different colours and scented with 100% pure, certified organic essential oils, Eco Clay™ is 100% natural and totally biodegradable. Free from BPA, they have screw top lids and can be reused after you have finished with your play dough or are entirely recyclable.

Kids love play dough. They love to roll it, smush it, mix it, shape it… do anything they can with it. I have seen it shoved in ears, eaten, and put through hair. It is a great tool to learn fine motor skills and inspire their imagination.

I love this idea, a natural play dough, great for us mothers who are too time poor to cook up our own!
