America!Children's Handmade Wooden Toys: Fun, Safe & AffordableHeirloom Quality Wooden Gift Items for Any OcassionWelcome to Arizona Wooden Toys, offering heirloom quality, handcrafted Children's Wooden Toys, built to be practical, fun and to provide many years of safe play. All of my Arizona Wooden Toys are HandMade, have totally Non-Toxic finishes and are crafted and made, by me, right here in my Arizona, USA, workshop. Wooden toys will last much longer then plastic toys and if a wooden toy does break, it generally does not create sharp edges and you can usually fix it. No batteries Required! Wooden toys help your child to appreciate the natural world, the shades and grains of wood, the colors, and the varying weight of wooden toys in a variety of sizes and densities. For this reason, I do not add colored, or other un-natural finishes to my wood toys. A well built, quality toy shows a respect for your child and in turn teaches the child to respect his belongings. Beauty and durability are important lessons for early developing ideas.

Unable
to put into writing his views on the recent congressional passage of
HR4040, one of my customers has submitted the attached photo as a
visual display of his opinion of this bill. This is a bill prompted by
all of the recent issues over "lead poisoning" & toxic
contaminations of so many children's toys (imported
children's toys.)
It was hastily thrown
together & lacked several "common sense" provisions, resulting
in
small, American toy makers being required to have every
product design they make, tested for specifically lead, possibly
resulting in additional costs running into thousands of dollars. I
don't have the space here to go into my thoughts on this, but I will
say that a big reason I've started making wooden toys is because of the
lack of controls over foreign,
imported toys.
I know what does or does not go into every single wooden toy I make. At
present, the good news is that the Consumer Product Safety
Commission (a governing body responsible for enforcing
federal
product safety provisions) has just recently granted exemptions for
certain products, such as
natural
untreated wood,
from these testing requirements. This, however, is a temporary
concession and if they don't make some serious adjustments to this
bill, by this time next year, I for one, will be out of the toy making
business. For more information on this, I have included the following
