Nya byggsatser

We now have a new range of wooden construction kits! Not only that we have selected them from a nearby producer - a small French company with over 50 year of experience from handicraft, but these kits are made of wood from sustainably managed forests in Jura (Eastern France) and are coloured with non-toxic paint. As we all know, kids love to build because it is so much fun. However there is much more behind the simple enjoyment and hours of assembling.


Construction-kit play benefits children in many ways, such as:

• learning to create buildings and other structures, and to design imaginary things based on their own ideas;
• helps to build strength in fingers and hands, and improve eye-hand coordination;
• develop social relationships with other children, which can be valuable when groups of children are sharing toys;
• helps to expand language abilities as children talk about sizes, shapes, colors, comparisons and other aspects of building;
• adds experience in science and physics when experimenting with gravity, weight, balance, and stability;
• gives a sense of achievement when finalizing a construction.

Klicka ett träd - initiativet

Act against climate change: Plant a Tree!

The "Click a Tree" challenge is open to EU residents from Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Sweden and the UK between 14-29 years of age. 10 participants of the competition will be chosen through a public voting system. The winners will then be invited to an environmental learning camp.


To raise awareness among young European citizens and to act for the climate, the European Commission has launched a competition with a tree theme. To participate in the initiative "Click a Tree", one should plant a tree and post a picture of the tree on the internet site of this initiative. One can also find a place where a tree has been planted through "tree cards".

And for those who do not know how to plant a tree, the site provides lot of information such as type of species, sites, seasons, care...

Just to remind you that forests are key elements of the phenomen of climate change. In fact, trees absorb and stock CO2 from air and in return produce oxygen. Reversed, when decomposing, they release the stocked CO2 to the atmosphere. Thus every year nine billion tons of CO2 are being absorbed by trees... but at the same time, approximately two billions are being released through deforestation.
