September 16, 2008 - The Planet Pixies ($24.99) for ages 3 and up are eco-friendly soft dolls—crafted from certified organic cotton and natural materials, with packaging made of 100 percent post consumer recycled cardboard—that aim to guide kids towards eco-conscious decision making.
Each doll character hails from a different endangered zone of the globe—the Florida Everglades (Kayla the Marsh Pixie), the Arctic Ocean (Anyu the Ice Pixie) and the Amazon Rain Forest (Maia the Tree Pixie)—and comes packaged with age-appropriate information about that Pixie’s homeland and the very real dangers it faces, as well as eco-tips for kids (and their caregivers) to learn.
Kids can also visit www.planetpixies.com for even more ways to be environmentally friendly at home, including the three Rs of Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
