Wouldn't every parent rest easier, knowing that their toys (albeit plastic) could at least be recycled once their children were finished playing with them? Let's ask Fisher Price, Hasbro, & Mattel to become pioneers in making toys that we can recycle? Maybe other companies will follow suit!!!
Why is this important?
Just like so many families, our kids love the popular toys made by Fisher Price, Hasbro, & Mattel. When they play, we want them to have fun, use their imaginations, and learn. But as their parents, we can't ignore the fact that each & every plastic toy is (in a few short years) bound to spend the rest of it's life in a landfill. These toys will not be recycled because they are not designed with that in mind. They will remain on the earth forever. It's time to change.
