The secret to getting a child to learn is teaching them the lesson in small increments. For your customers teaching their children the value of living a “green” lifestyle, the first step begins by playing. Idbids® knows well that children learn best by doing; more specifically by playing. With kids in mind, Idbids created their childrens’ eco-friendly guide designed to help kids learn by example but capture their interest through activity.
The Idbids Starter Kit consists of several award winning eco friendly toys. Children are allowed to choose Waverly the bright blue water drop, Lola the flower, or Scout the cloud– 9″ plush toys handcrafted of organic Egyptian cotton.
Also included in the starter kit are a backpack made of organic cotton, a photographic story and activity book printed on recycled paper, and access to an online rewards program that allows parents to print a Certificate of Completion for when the child completes the Field Guide. This kind of stuff excites the kid in everyone, so it is easy to imagine how much fun a child would have with these products.
Imagine the faces of the parent and child as they sit and play with the plush toy together. Parents can rest well knowing that the 100% organic cotton is dyed with natural organic dyes. Plus, a portion of the purchase of each Idbid toy will be contributed to The Nature Conservancy. Also with the purchase of each kit, children are given a code to enter online that will help protect the habitats of animals through The Nature Conservancy’s Plant A Billion Trees campaign, Adopt An Acre®, ore Rescue The Reef® programs. Eco friendly and charitable!
Sitting and playing in the living room floor means a lot to children. It’s learning by example, quality time with parents, and an opportunity for parents to use a product that they trust to teach their child about an important lifestyle.
Eco-friendly parents are loyal to a fault to the stores that they trust, and for two good reasons. First, once a proud parent always a proud parent. The child’s welfare comes first and the products have to be top notch because no risk should be taken with someone so precious. Secondly, environmentally conscious buyers are a growing niche who look to those who share their values. The same way that friends buy from friends is the type of loyalty shown through these customers. Help them return to your store with these really fun eco-friendly kids toys.
Brynn,
Thanks, what you say about kids and our toys is so true. Sometimes the easiest way for a child to learn a complex concept is teaching through play. That is exactly what the Idbids Eco-friendly Starter Kit is designed to do. A complete “go green” kit that enables parents to learn along with their children the concept of environmental sustainability.
Each Eco-friendly Starter Kit contains one 9″ Idbid plush toy – Scout the cloud, Lola the flower or Waverly the bright blue water drop – lovingly handcrafted using 100% organic Egyptian cotton which has been colored with natural organic dyes. Through a colorful photographic storybook, the child is introduced to all three Idbids who invite him or her to go on a wonderful journey of discovery. By taking iddy biddy steps along with his or her Idbid, the child learns about our Earth and what he or she can do to make a difference. The storybook is printed on recycled paper with eco-friendly inks.
Also included in the kit is the official Idbids Field Guide which includes 10 doable iddy biddy steps. The child can chart his or her progress as steps are completed every day. Also printed on recycled paper with eco-friendly inks. The child can go online with his or her parent to http://www.idbids.com once the iddy biddy steps are complete and print a Certificate of Completion.
In the kit is an organic cotton backpack for the journey which can be used to carry the Idbid and Field Guide, for school books or for storing a collection. The kit packaging is made from recycled and eco-friendly materials and includes paper doll cutouts and a playland insert.
NEW FOR 2009! Individual Idbids are also available so children can collect all three. With the purchase of each Idbid kit or plush, a child can enter a code online that will help protect the habitats of animal friends through The Nature Conservancy’s Plant A Billion Trees campaign, Adopt an Acre® or Rescue the Reef® programs. A portion of each sale will be contributed to The Nature Conservancy.
Thanks again, Sarah
Sent my God-daughter, who is five, Lola. She loves it. Carries it with her everywhere. I finally found a present she likes and doesn’t already have. Her mom says she is asking about the environment. Want to know how she can make flowers grow so the environment will be happy. I love the fact that I could give something educational that she would find fascinating. Thanks!!!!
