An Early Christmas for Scout

Tuesday, October 30, 2007
I am joining the revolution with Danielle and decided buy some quality toys for Scout so I can trash her bin of cheapo plastic made-in-China toys.

DH and I made some money at the garage sale we had last weekend, so we were able to order 9 wooden toys from Moolka.com.





I also found a couple toys on eBay that I was going to bid on, but the bidding has gotten higher than I wanted to spend, so I'm going to look for something different.

I hope Scout enjoys all of her new toys as much as I enjoyed picking them out.

They were all made in Germany and have eco-friendly non-toxic water-based paints, so I think I can feel good about Scout chewing on them. Yay!

I'll be glad to get rid of most of the toys she has now, but it'll be sort of tough for me to throw away a few of them. She has a couple favorites that she really enjoys. But it's for the better.

We have the little doll with the teething ring (in orange, I think). Sam liked to chew on the doll's head while he held it by the ring, which made me laugh my ass off every time he did it.

I love all your choices! I am all about quality for Sam's toys. He has very few and they are all wonderful. Kids really don't need quantity!

I'm trying to start off on the right foot, but I know I've gotten a few things that may not be ideal. I have made a pledge that *I* will buy kiddies items that sit well with my conscience, but all I can do is try to lead by example with others. I have made a point in saying "I would rather have less things of better quality than a lot of crap."

The toys are ADORABLE by the way. I love that Deutch stuff.
