Imaginative Toys
from the seeds owner Amber notes that she strives to design and create open ended, long-lasting toys that encourage exploration and pretending so your child can experience a magical childhood. This goal is evident within the collection. All from the seeds toys are simple, yet lovely and encourage kids to use their imagination vs. focusing on bright shiny lights or sounds.

Safety
from the seeds’ little stuffed plush animals are safe for all ages due to sewn on expressions vs. buttons or other removable objects. All wooden toys are sanded smooth but due to straps on some of the toys (such as the wooden cameras) use your best judgment when giving a toy to a younger child.
