Fair Trade Toys |

My wife and I recently bought some toys for our friends' kids to use when they are visiting.
We stumbled across a shop in Perth called Fair Go Trading, which is a lot like the Oxfam shops.
Anyhow, we found the toys they sell to be bright,
practical (e.g. good ol' puppet theatres and hand puppets), and inexpensive. Best of all, as most of the toys are made in Third World countries, the proceeds from sales help people in need.
We bought a flourescent orange-and-blue 'hands-on' noughts-and-crosses set. The noughts and crosses are small, cuddly cushions and the board is bright colours sewn onto a hessian mat.
What do others know about 'fair go' toys?
