– Child-Friendly Nontoxic Play Food for Kids & Toddlers IN THIS ARTICLE –
The feel-good play kitchen is set, now it’s time to stock up those cabinets, and the fridge and get into the action with gentle kitchen wood toys! Play food for kids is a wonderful way to pass on the family’s eating habits, create a bond, implement the Montessori philosophy of independent play, and even get inspiration for real-life cooking. And because food can be very personal and even emotional for some people, this post has it all: from vegan to veggies to charcuterie, no judging. The only thing we are strict about in this post is for the play foods to be non-toxic. It means water-based paints and dyes, low-VOC emissions, BPA/PVC-free plastic, non-toxic glues, and environmentally responsible wood according to current European and American standards . That way we can help the parents who are trying to lower the kids’ exposure to toxic chemicals or live a more natural life .
P.S.: you can find the non-toxic and sustainable wooden fridge from the cover picture here !

Non-Toxic Wooden Play Kitchens & Accessories That Green Moms Love
You’ll notice that most nontoxic toys sold in the US are from European brands. Why? Because the European Union has more strict standards for toy safety. They understand that kids are prone to put anything in their mouths, therefore, should not be exposed to chemicals known to be toxic. The Scandinavian countries have even more specific and strict standards. You can read more details about which standards I take into consideration at the end of this post . Also, in general, non-toxic play food for kids is more expensive than “regular” play food for kids. But it’s worth it! The atoxic wood kitchen toys are tactile, naturally soothing, and more durable. Fortunately, American customers are becoming more demanding of child-friendly toys, therefore more companies will have to keep up. So in this post, you’ll find non-toxic play food for kids in every price range!

The Best Non-Toxic Car Seats
Sustainable & Non-Toxic standards considered for this post
Each country or economic bloc has its own standards for sustainability, safety, and toxicity. And because they can go from strict to almost nonexistent we are considering brands that market their products as compliant with at least one of the standards below.
FSC-certified wood
From the fsc.org website : “The Forest Stewardship Council sets standards for responsible forest management. A voluntary program, FSC uses the power of the marketplace to protect forests for future generations.
FSC certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social, and economic benefits. “
TSCA Title IV
⚠️ Because there is not a large consensus whether the formaldehyde emissions under the TSCA Title IV is really safe and nontoxic, we are only featuring MDF/plywood as alternatives to real wood.
What do you think?
