Zubels Handknit Organic Toys, a Hands-on Review

Zubels handknit cotton toys are a series of unique characters which are equally liked by tiny babies and older toddlers. If you are purchasing Zubels for a baby, you can be comforted by the fact that the toy is soft, cuddly and contains no toxic ingredients. Made with organic cotton yarn and eco-friendly dyes, the toy can be safely crewed and explored by your child. Some of the toys, like the Grasshopper Gordan here in the photo, make a gentle sound when shaken. Gordan measures 3 by 4 inches in size and is very easy for little hands to hold.

Toddlers enjoy Zubels for their bright colors, interesting characters and soft texture. There are plenty of characters to choose from for imaginative play: a pirate, a princess, adorable monsters, bugs, bunnies, cars, characters from books like Little Red Riding Hood, and even Christmas characters such as Santa and reindeer. Zubels retail for around $15 - $25.
