First came the biodegradable fork, then the compostable coffee cup, and now "earth friendly" toys. Green Toys said Friday that it will introduce a line of bioplastic toys in the fall. The first toys are classics aimed at babies and toddlers: a tea set, cookware, an indoor gardening kit, and the old shovel and pail. What sets these colorful plastics apart are what they're made of.

It will also provide NatureWorks plastic, which is made from poly lactic acid (PLA), another corn-based product. Bookmark this page!      |
