All your organic and eco-friendly toys in one place! Here at Oompa, we know that some parents want their childês toys to be more than just fun, educational, and safety tested; they want their baby toys to be made from all natural ingredients, with no pesticides or harsh chemicals. They want their toys to not only be good for their baby, but also good for the Earth. To help you parents out, we have created our Organic and Eco-Friendly category, filled with products that are made from natural materials, cultivated with a reduced impact upon the Earth, and sold with minimal packaging.

Some people may think that choosing organic and eco-friendly toys means that you get less options or have to compromise on quality or appearance. Not so! With our wide and varied selection of products, from organic baby toys to eco-friendly furniture, youêll always have plenty to choose from!

Our organic baby toys are made by some of the best companies around. Organic cotton doudous from Under the Nile (such as the Organic Sleeping Doll), smooth wooden toys and teethers from Little Alouette, and whimsical clutching toys from Kathe Kruse (such as the Organic Grabbing Gnome. Some of our companies, such as Kallisto, are quite small, mom and pop operations, while others are quite large and well known, like Plan Toys. Whether large or small, each company is committed to the innovation of Earth-friendly products and processes for a better tomorrow.

If youêre looking for an organic or eco-friendly doll or stuffed animal, you will certainly have a lot of options to choose from. Made from organic cotton and wool, and hand stitched with care, these plush creations will be a long time friend in your childês life. Whether you are looking for a cuddly teddy bear or a classically sweet-faced Kathe Kruse Waldorf doll, our collection has it all.

Of course, being eco-friendly can be more than just using organic ingredients; companies can also come up with innovative ways to recycle and reuse products and materials instead of letting them fall into landfills. Green Toys, a company based in the United States, makes all of their toys from recycled plastic milk jugs, and packages them in biodegradable cardboard. Plan Toys and Imagiplay, similarly, produces their toys from left over rubberwood, which would normally go to waste after the valuable rubber is extracted for industrial manufacturing. This means that their toys, such as the Plan Toys Microwave, is just as high quality as traditional wooden kitchens, but also a great use of materials.

Most babies will spend up to 70% of their time in the crib. For this reason, it is important to consider all of the materials that surround your baby for so much of their early life. Organic bedding and mattresses, free from pesticides or other nasty chemicals are a safe and natural option. Childrenês furniture made from sustainably grown, FSC certified wood is an option that is not only safe, it is also better for the environment.
