U.S. company Zen Design Group, of Berkeley has launched a new line of mechanical toys SEE Toys. (SEE - Safety, Ecology and Economy - safety, environment and economy). Chips of these toys is that they are interactive, it is light, move and make sounds, while not having the batteries. According to company president, Sun Yu (Sun Yu), an idea to make clockwork toys without batteries, came into his head when he examined the full range of their toys, I thought how cool it would be if all of this never had to replace batteries.
And it's not even the fact that the purchase of replacement batteries require additional spending, much worse by the fact that millions of these batteries end up the way to a landfill, polluting the environment. And the worst thing - is that the batteries are swallowed thousands of young children during play, causing considerable damage to health.
Several years ago, Sun Yu received a patent for the principle of toys, working on long-lasting battery rechargeable by the child and has developed several new mechanical toys without batteries.
The range: firefly Dynafly with colored lights shining eyes, movable limbs, head, wings, tail and sound effects, Dynacar, Dynatiger, Dynadolphin and Dynashark, in which everything revolves, is moving shines and buzzing / squealing / growls.
All clockwork toys SEE Toys combines one part - in their "stomach" is a crank, out of it you can charge the toy at a time.
Stand clockwork toys SEE Toys from $ 20 to $ 30. They are sold on the site of Zen Design. For large retailers that sell toys, they do not hasten to purchase products SEE Toys, though only because they prefer to work with major manufacturers.
Nevertheless, today more and more people are concerned about environmental issues and environmental pollution, they become better educated regarding toxins and chemicals in toys. If conscious and sophisticated consumers will begin to demand "green" toy stores will have to respond to consumer preferences.
