Eco-Bonk

One South Carolina-based mom with two active boys and tons of toys was really tired of “disposable” toys – the TV and movie franchise gotta have it kind of toys her boys played with for five minutes and then cast off were driving her nuts. She wanted high-play value toys that would keep her boys coming back time and again, quality toys made of recycled materials and designed to stimulate the mind and the senses and to promote exercise; finding nothing that fit the bill, she launched Pueri Elemental, a woman-owned US manufacturer intent on changing the future of child’s play, in 2012. The first product was a keeper – the Eco-Bonk best-in-class bop toy is made in America from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles and features a plush cover; the inflatable toy keeps little ones engaged and active for hours on end. The interactive, eco-friendly plush bopper toy is offered in a fun range of characters including elephants, owls and whales.
