Idbids – Plush Starter Kit – CLOSED

by Mommy on July 17, 2009

Taking care of our environment should be at the top of our list of things to do. For many of us -ahem- older generation it’s hard to get our heads wrapped around the fact that the world is not indestructible and that clean water, and clean air just wont always be there. But it is true, if we continue to treat our world with disrespect, the resources we rely on will no longer be there tomorrow. This is why is it good to start your children off a young age to be environmentally friendly and consciences.

idbid2 Idbids are eco-friendly toys that are teaching children at a young age that little things can make a huge difference for our environment. The Idbids are not only a physical toy, but there is also a code that comes a long with each Idbid for children to enter online and they can learn and play with their new toy online too.

The Idbids teach your children about little ways they can make a difference for the environment. Not only does it teach them what they can do, it also lets them know the effects of the changes they make are as well. For example, it teaches children to turn off the tap when bruising their teeth and they can save a whole bath tub of water in a week.

There are 3 different types of Idbids, Scout the Cloud, Lola the pink flower, and Waverley the blue rain drop. So there is an Idbid for every type of child to love and learn from.

idbid The Idbid starter kit comes complete with the following items

Idbid characters – made from 100% organic Egyptian cotton
story book which teaches your child about ways they can help the environment -the book is printed on recycled paper and with eco-friendly inks
Field Guide with 10 small steps that your child can do to help the environment, with a progress chart – printed on recycled paper and with eco-friendly inks
Backpack to carry the Idbid and books – made with 100% organic cotton
Online code for your child to interact with their Idbid online

All the packaging is also made from recycled paper and there is a paper doll cut out and play land insert. You can also buy each Idbid separately.

If you are looking for an easy way to get your kids involved with the environment, the Idbids are sure to be an easy way to get them excited and interested in seeing what a difference one person can make. These would make a create addition to a classroom as well. Hopefully with great products like the Idbids the next generation will have a better appreciation for our world than we do.

Buy it: To purchase visit Idbids online, or for my local readers you can get them at exclusively at P’lovers, you can also visit Eco-Alberta to see where Idbids are available in your area.

Imagine a world where we have taught environmental sustainability as a fundamental concept to our children –
just as we teach shapes, colors, letters and the importance of saying “please and thank you.”

I totally agree with this.

Shelly July 17, 2009 at 4:05 pm: It is simple to teach about recycling – my 4 year old ‘looks for the triangles’
Annie July 17, 2009 at 4:09 pm: I like that each Idbid has it’s own ‘personality’ decribed

I also like their educators section, this would be good for me too because I am the ‘greenest’ member of my families and I have lots of kiddos to influence (7 neices and nephews and one daughter):)

I posted this quote on my FB becuase I like what they say SO much!
“Just like the concept of shapes, colors and numbers, teaching children the concept of caring for our Earth at an early age will help to ensure good habits now and for the future. “
Annie July 17, 2009 at 4:21 pm: We are teaching our little one by having her help us put the items in the recycle bins, and hanging her dipes to dry. We upcycle many things- which I am hoping as she grows she’ll notice (like making dresses out of daddy’s old t-shirts…etc) and we don’t use paper towels- just dish towels and cloth napkins.

She is just one- but she already loves to hold and carry the bags we take to the store. When it’s time she likes to help pass them all to the checker. She thinks it’s funny.

Debbie KL July 17, 2009 at 8:16 pm: I’d like to teach my son that it’s good to buy used clothes and toys instead of new whenever possible. Also to donate what he doesn’t need anymore so other kids can enjoy his things.

Jennifer McLachlan July 17, 2009 at 9:07 pm: I think that we can simply teach our kids to take care of our environment by setting the example, after all, that is how a child learns. They watch us for their cues on how to speak and move and laugh so when we tell them it’s playtime, more of us should stand up too and go outside and lay them in the grass and let them jump in puddles. Before too long they will be the ones needing to sort the recycling and stop the paper bills from being mailed so, for now, making piles of autumn leaves and fresh snow angels is the best way to teach a child how very precious everything is and how very blessed we are to be able to play with the things that don’t need to be plugged in!

And since kids don’t really have any concept of time (Such as ‘that will be around for 100 yrs’!) we have to find a way to reach their little minds in ways that they can understand. These ‘Idbids’ do that in a wonderful way!!!!
