New Blocks for the Kid

We already have two sets of non-tox blocks for our son, that are very Victorian looking (as I have mentioned before, I am a raging traditionalist who still doesn’t trust the menacing hum of microwave ovens).  However, always on the lookout for products that are somehow different from what you may find on other Green Mama blogs, I thought that these may be worth a mention.

Available from the MoMA, these Alexander Girard inspired blocks are made of sustainable bass wood and printed with non-toxic inks.  Methinks that any of your graphic design friends would swoon over them, as would any “cool” parents.

The Girard blocks are $120, unless you are museum member, and then they are $108.

Not hippy prices, to be sure.
