If you've got elementary school kids your home is probably overflowing with planet-hating plastic playthings and landfill-loving batteries. So why not redress the balance and say sorry to Mother Nature with some Sprig Toys.

Totally revolutionary, these eco-friendly vehicles smell like wood but are actually made from a new, ultra durable bio-material called Sprigwood. Once the toys have reached the end of their natural lifespan they are completely recyclable, right down to their rubber tyres. Green Machines? Too right.

Not just ordinary toys...

But what about the batteries, we hear you ask? No need, because all the lights and sounds are powered by ingenious push and pump energy. Of course, all this eco business would be pretty irrelevant if the toys didn't make the grade funwise, but thankfully they do. Big time.

At the heart of the Sprig Adventure Series is the rumbling Discover Rig. This sturdy push-powered jeep comes with its own Adventure Guide called Captain Faraday - a nifty little plug 'n' play character pre-loaded with tales of his Secret Safari. Pushing the vehicle brings this clever fella to life as he delights kids with stories, sings songs and shows the way with his glowing hardhat - all without batteries. Wow!

Which one's which?...


If little ones want to hear new stories and songs there are other Adventure Guides to collect. There are also two little sidekick vehicles available, the Baja Scout and the Rally Racer. These funky, pump-powered off-roaders come with additional LED-clad Adventure Guides: Baja Scout is driven by Miki Flinders who's pre-loaded with tales of the Outback; Rally Racer is driven by Rudi Tootin who'll tell you all about his Arctic Race. Watch them glow in their own vehicles or slot them in the Discover Rig to hear their tales of derring-do.


If you're concerned about the environmental impact of batteries and plastic you could always teach your kids to knit yoghurt and make them play with dull wooden playthings whilst listening to Al Gore speeches. Alternatively, give 'em a Sprig Toy. They're the future of fun...naturally!
