New Bamboo Zoo Animals Show Off Their Soft Side

Dandelion Earth-Friendly Goods introduces its exciting new line of

eco-friendly plush toys for toddlers: Bamboo Zoo

Winter Park, FL -- Dandelion Earth-Friendly Goods allows us to see A Different Shade of Green with the launch of its Bamboo Zoo plush line. With the new Bamboo Zoo collection, children’s favorite zoo superstars are reinvented with a new posh look fit for the king of the jungle and his fierce friends. The Bamboo Zoo creations are made from soft and silky bamboo velour and filled with natural corn fiber.

Bamboo velour has a natural luster and silky softness, making a crew of charismatic characters shimmer with their own special pizzazz!   Bamboo Zoo features Lion, Monkey, Giraffe and Bear, in an adorable assortment of styles and color. Four fun styles:  Plush, Puppets, Shakers and Cuddlies. With five creamy colors:  vanilla bean, pistachio green, orange sherbet, ice blue, and white frost.

Dandelion Earth-Friendly Goods are made using eco-friendly materials, while balancing practicality for today’s families. "We are thrilled to be launching the new Bamboo Zoo line, which is our softest and cuddliest collection to date" says Re-Think It co-founder Amy Shumway. "We have incorporated bamboo into these products because it is one of the planet’s most renewable, and sustainable resources, and it requires no pesticides to grow.  Our velour is made with viscose from bamboo which carries the Confidence in Textiles certification – so no harmful chemicals.  It creates one of the safest and softest fibers for children."

The new line of Bamboo Zoo plush consists of these four fun styles:

Plush

With the perfect amount of adorable charm and irresistible softness, children are sure to fall in love with each and every one of the Bamboo Zoo characters.  Simply styled and made with bamboo and natural corn fiber stuffing, each plush animal is machine washable and dryer safe.  (MSRP $27.99)

Hand Puppets

With the Bamboo Zoo Hand Puppets children will be able to play and explore their imagination with their new plush friends. The hand puppets are great for inspiring playful interaction between parents and child, or preschool friends. (MSRP $19.99)

Soft Shakers

The adorable Soft Shakers are great for babies who want toys with a little bit of rhythm. The soft shakers will allow children to play and explore their musical side with gentle sounds from this fun and cuddly instrument, much like a maraca. (MSRP $12.99)

Cuddlies

The Bamboo Zoo Cuddlies are the perfect hug & hold, take-along buddy for babies and young children. Their soft velour texture and tug and teethe features will allow children to feel that sense of warmth and security while on the go or at nap time. (MSRP $19.99)

All of Dandelion Earth-Friendly Goods are tested above current CPSC standards and meet the standards set by the European Union.  Because Dandelion uses corn-based fibers rather than cotton fill, the plush toys are machine washable and will maintain their shape and quality even in the dryer.   In addition, Dandelion Earth-Friendly Goods’ packaging is made from recycled paper board, and contributes to environmental consciousness with its creative approach to size and practicality. And all of the products are shipped with recycled newsprint, not bubble wrap.

The Bamboo Zoo will be available in May at specialty retailers nationwide.
