Two eco-friendly games for ages 4 and up
ÖkoNorm modeling clay
Plasticine not quite like the others. A quick look at the composition: waxes, DAB paraffin oil, clean and natural chalks, dyes. The 10 sticks are therefore made from renewable raw materials.
The advantages of plasticine : color side, there is a choice: beige, yellow, orange, fuchsia, brown, red, green, purple, blue, black. The dough does not harden in the air, so no problem if your child forgets to put it away. It does not leave marks on the fingers and in the event of a small accident on the clothes, hop in the washing machine and everything disappears! Note, the absence of a particular smell … young children will not be tempted to put sticks in their mouths. A very practical format for the holidays with a mini price.
Minus of plasticine : a little less flexible to work with than “industrial” pastes.

Playmaïs
In this large box, no less than 500 colored corn flakes made from natural products and food coloring. Free of harmful substances and completely biodegradable, this manual game also contains accessories to make many creations.
The advantages of Playmaïs : we moisten the flakes with the cloth provided, to shape them and stick them together. Nothing more natural! Once the masterpiece is finished, all that remains is to fix it on a smooth surface (like tiles) with always a little water. And if your child is lacking inspiration, he can count on the leaflet to give him new ideas. Several hours of play in perspective before resources run out …
The minuses of Playmaïs : If you really want to change the material, do not hesitate to soak the flakes well, only the colors rub off on the hands (washing with soap is recommended) and we stain the other flakes handled. You have to wipe your hands well otherwise the elements tend to stick to your fingers. A slight smell of popcorn that can make the little ones want to put them in their mouths …
