Had enough of chinese junk?
Selecta is a German company. They design and make their toys in Germany, using non-toxic products. They have very high standards. Of course, Selecta toys are more expensive. But you pay for quality. You have a choice to make: one great quality, safe and non toxic toy, or two toys made out of god knows what in China by big company such as Mattel.
I have made the choice for my little boy. He has less, but I know he can put everything he has in his mouth without concern for his health.

I was sorry to hear that this week Selecta will no longer be selling their toys to the US market. This is because the cost of proving compliance with the new rules would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars (not complying...the cost of proving compliance). The law could easily have been written to raise toys to a higher standard without the draconian compliance requirements that are being in place and which will cause the disappearance of many more natural toys that we LOVE! Find out more at www.squidoo.com/fixcpsia. Please get informed & involved to help get changes that can keep the toys safe AND still having a toy (and children's products market).
