Product Description

No job is too big for the world's most environmentally friendly tool kit! This awesome 15 piece Green ToysTM Tool Set includes a tool box, phillips screwdriver, flat screwdriver, hammer, saw, wrench, pliers, 2 two-hole connectors, 2 nails, 2 bolts, and 2 nuts. Here's an even greater incentive to make your kids drink their milk. Green ToysTM uses recycled milk containers as the main ingredient to create their toys. The milk containers are re-processed into high-density polyethylene (HDPE). It's one of the safest, cleanest plastics around. Everything from the collection of materials to the production of Green ToysTM occurs in Los Angeles, CA. Local production of toys means that far fewer miles are used for transportation. On average, every pound of recycled milk jugs used in the making of Green ToysTM saves energy equal to 3,000 AAA batteries. Green ToysTM products are tested by nationally recognized, independent, third-party labs (located in the USA.) They contain no traceable amounts of Phthalates or BPA. They are also designed without any external coatings, eliminating the fear of lead paint. Although Green ToysTM may not be as nutritious as a glass of milk, you no longer need to worry about what odd chemicals your kids are ingesting every time they launch a playful bite into one of their toys. Dimensions of Tool Box: 10-1/4" L x 4-7/8" W x 6" H. Includes 15 pieces.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great toy, simple and quality design August 26, 2009
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
Bought this tool set for my son after he showed some major interest in my tool set. We've had it for a couple of months now.
Here are the pros:
-Very sturdy build. I know they look kind of flimsy in the pictures, but in reality the recycled plastic toys are not going to break or wear out in my life time. The plastic actually gives a little when strained, which I like for little hands and the safety of my furniture.
-Realistic look and feel. The pliers, screw drivers, wrenches, nuts, and screws all work perfectly and interchangeably with each other. The hammer, nails and tool box work well for getting out toddler aggression and the tightness of the nails into the tool box is just perfect for our toddler to be challenged and successful.
-Nice price for what you get, and glad to be "green" while doing it.
-Toddler tested - he no longer sneaks into my toolbox to get his tool fix. He seems fully satisfied with his tools and it has consistently been the first to come out and the last to be put away.
-Each tool is labeled and my son has already learned their names and pretends to read the labels. Nice teaching "tool."
Cons:
-The small blue building pieces are a little boring - would have liked to see something more intriguing to put together with the screws and nails, but they are easy for my son to handle and he doesn't seem to mind their simplicity.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Nifty Little Toolset from a Fantastic Company October 26, 2009
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
After reading Anatole and the Toyshop, my daughter became obsessed with being a "carpenter mouse" and found she just had to have a tool set. So, she sold her old boring toys and saved her allowance, and we went searching for the perfect one. We were both thrilled to find this one by Green Toys.

Green Toys, for those unfamiliar, is a California-based company who manufactures all of their toys from recycled milk cartons --- In the USA! This means that all their toys are made from stable, safe high-density polyethylene, and don't have (or need) any scary surface paints. As a mom, this makes me so happy I could dance!

The toy itself is pretty cool from a kid-perspective too. It comes with a couple screwdrivers, two nails, two screws, two blue doohickeys that can attach one piece to another, two nuts, a saw, pliers, wrench and a hammer. Lots o' stuff. If you think outside the box - literally - there's a whole world of things that need to be repaired, sawed into a thousand pieces, and whacked repeatedly with a hammer.

My daughter has used her screwdrivers to 'fix' her broken camera. In the role of "carpenter mouse" she has very diligently dismantled an old diaper box, and freed a whole family of mice. Sometimes she gets around to hammering a nail or two into the side of the carrying case, or has a few mishaps with the screws (they're tricky and haven't been mastered yet). But definitely, if you don't use your imagination, the inserting and removing of screws/nails could become tedious and dull very quickly.

Our only disapointment with this toy was that ours came with two Phillips screwdrivers and no flat! Our daughter was already way too attached to return the thing, so I thought 'what the heck', shot Green Toys an email with all our purchase info, and the little problem we had. They responded within 24 hours. Within a week, we had not only a shiny new flathead screwdriver, but a couple spare parts for our tool set. The customer service has totally sold me on Green Toys. What an awesome company!

So, bottom line. It's safe. If you use your imagination, or rather, prod the kids in the direction of using theirs, this is a great toy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great pieces, but little to do September 9, 2009

Durability: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   
Love that it is made in USA, and the recycled & recycleable plastic. The packaging was adorable when it arrived. The toolbox is cute & my young 3-yr old son immediately loved it & said he was "Alpha Pig" (from Super Why on PBS)

Problem, there's not much to do with it. I wish a couple of the holes had been threaded, so toddler could practice using the screwdrivers. Instead have to master the double concept of using the nuts with the bolts first. And by then, I don't think he'll care, because there isn't anything you can put together w/this. Will have to find out if it can interact w/any other toys. None that I know of right now.
