Making Heirloom Toys

by Jim Makowicki

Jim Makowicki's wooden toys show an attention to detail and sophistication of design that set them apart from the usual run-of-the-mill toy projects. This collection of toys includes 22 projects, primarily featuring transportation toys (cars, trains, trolleys, planes and boats) and educational toys. For each project, there's a full-page photo of the toy, detailed drawings and patterns, a parts list, construction photos and clear, step-by-step instructions on how to make the toy. A color gallery shows the finished toys in all their glory. Two introductory chapters explain the fine points of toymaking techniques, with helpful hints on working with small parts and choosing the best finish for your toy. Whether you're making a toy to entertain a child or grace a desk, this book will teach you how to create toys that your family will cherish for generations.

Green your kids toys

Katrina Beikoff, in 'The Green Earth Guide' (2007), says... "Green your kid's toys. It might sound odd to suggest wooden toys, but wooden toys not only usually last longer than plastic, they are safer to chew because they don't contain PVC (polyvinyl chloride). PVC is a dioxin producing powerhouse, releasing toxins into the environment its entire lifecycle from production to disposal".
