TobeUs Toys: Handcarved Italian Toy Cars
by Beth Shea, 02/22/09
TobeUs toy cars are an artistic, refreshing departure from the vast array of plastic toy cars on the market. Handmade in Italy by four Italian designers and craftsman, these sets of wheels are ones we’d definitely let our tots get behind. Choose from models including: the sports car, the saloon, the security van, the pick-up, and the romantic one. The motto behind TobeUs toys is based on Italian designer Bruno Munari’s belief that “playing is a serious matter.” With this notion in mind, their cars are built to last with sturdy, indestructible cedar of Lebanon wood, they’re paint free to retain timeless charm, and they’re meant to be handed down for many generations of play and enjoyment. We also love that TobeUs supports Save the Children. TobeUs’s dedication to creating non-toxic, heirloom quality toys and their commitment to helping children in need, make us want to take these cars for a joy ride.
