€155.94

Jiminy
What it contains: Bench, 3 balls to pound into it, and a hammer, all made from bioplastic, in a cardboard gift box
Feel great about where it comes from:
Raw materials from Europe? No :-( - Brazil
Organic? TBC
Manufactured in Europe? Yes - Denmark
What's it made from?
Bioplastic (specifically Green PE) - an innovative, carbon-neutral material made from the leftovers after sugarcane is harvested. It's carbon-neutral because plants absorb carbon as they grow - whereas petroleum-based plastic has a carbon footprint of up to 6 times its own weight in CO2. Bioplastic is fully recyclable at end of life along with petro-plastics. Think of it as FairTrade coffee - looks the same, tastes the same, but has a very different impact on the world because of how it's produced;
Fillers like Calcium Stearate (an edible salt);
Colourants (these are petroleum-derived and 1.0-1.5% of the material).
What's it packaged in? Cardboard only
Shipping packaging from manufacturer to us: Cardboard only
Plastic-free? 100% free from petroleum-derived plastic - made from bioplastic, see above for the difference. Does contain about 1.5% petroleum-derived colourants
Vegan? Yes
Animal-cruelty-free? Yes
Reused upcycled or recycled? No
Feel great about where it goes after you've used it:

Reusable refillable? N/A
Recyclable? Yes 100%
Feel great about you and your child using it:

Solvent-free? Yes
