TEGU

THE WOODEN BLOCK. REINVENTED! The wooden block. Reinvented. In 2006, Tegu co-founder Chris Haughley returned from Honduras with a vision to create a for-profit business that would have a transforming effect on the lives of Hondurans, one of the world's poorest countries. Nine years later, not only has Tegu electrified the toy market with the introduction of its magnetic wooden blocks, but, in doing so, Chris and his brother Will have delivered on their commitment to make a lasting difference in Honduras and its economy. Tegu designs products to unlock the mind and inspire creative experiences which captivate children in safe, natural and innovative ways.

UNIT BRICKS®

100% EARTH FRIENDLY PLAY!

CONSTRUCTION

The story of Unit Bricks® began with a family of builders who were always building and designing together. They got a kick out of watching their children start building with blocks. This got them thinking. "What if we could create an affordable, multi-sensory, sustainably-made and durable unit block set". After five years of research, development and testing with educators, they created Unit Bricks®. Already at work in schools across the United States and Europe, the expertly designed size, shape, weight and feel of Unit Bricks® has ignited children's creativity and set the stage for intellectual and cognitive development. Unit Bricks® are made of 100% sustainably grown, solid, hand carved and organically dyed solid wood. And by using the entire tree, roots and all—they strive to produce environmentally friendly products by reducing energy usage during production and creating minimal waste. Unit Bricks® only use organic water-based colour and non-formaldehyde glue. Unit Bricks® contain zero plastics and are completely non-toxic.
