Little eco footprints: eco play. I stumbled across a pile of plastic toys dumped in bushland a while back. The scene clearly illustrates one of the problems with cheap plastic toys. They never ever go away. Every molecule of synthetic plastic ever created is still in existence somewhere on the planet, unless it was incinerated.
Long after plastic toys break (and sadly that’s often shortly after they were purchased) the plastic is still here. A few years ago Little Eco really wanted Santa to bring her a pink plastic battery operated toy cash register. Thankfully, Santa took the time to search for a safe, durable, ethically made timber cash register. This very loved toy is still in perfect condition three years later – and will last long enough to be played with by Little Eco's children and grandchildren or to be passed on to numerous other children. Choose quality over quantity when it comes to toys Before you head out for that last minute shopping spree, stop and consider the true cost of those cheap toys.
