ons/all-products Learning about the world of non-toxic toys is especially important for young children's developing bodies. Toxic chemicals can harm brain and organ development, so you need to understand which common chemicals to avoid in toys and what some safer alternatives are.
In the latest episode of The Non-Toxic Mommy Podcast, Yasmine explains why we need to be careful about chemicals in toys, especially for babies. Their developing bodies are more sensitive!
Yasmine explains everything about nasty toxins, from BPA to flame retardants. And how about those light-up toys keeping the baby awake? Not a good idea.
Luckily, there are safer materials. Wood is excellent, and organic cotton is perfect for stuffies, too. Silicone and natural rubber toys can work in a pinch.
The best part is you don't need to toss everything overnight. Just slowly replace toys with quality wooden and natural items. Fewer toys means more focused play!
This episode will nudge you in the right direction. Your kids will thank you later for making safer choices now.
“I think it's so wonderful that you are here with me, learning about the importance of non-toxic toys, thinking about this while your kids are little because this is when we can make that change. This is when we can really impact their future development just by helping them avoid some of the lore of, like, mainstream toys." ~ Yasmine Moussa
