Today I’ve rounded up some hyperlinks you’ll enjoy. All of them meant to construct the summer a little more green and fun.

If you made that DIY twinkle board with LED lights and reclaimed wood it’d not only be totally imaginative decor for a child’s space but eco-friendly too. I love that concept.

Next a video game review I posted elsewhere - Plants vs. Zombies. I couldn’t decide whether I should post that here or at my gardening blog, but considering it’s not technically a green product, I reviewed it at my garden blog. However, I really think whether you’re green-minded you’ll like that game. It’s family friendly, not expensive, totally adorable, and full of plants and zombies. It’s the only instance I’ve really seen plants kicking butt in a game, which is pretty darn cool.

Wee Woodland Mushrooms - Adorable

Toys with Endless Possibilities - my new favorite simple eco-friendly wooden toy of ALL moment. I’m not certain why I love these tiny mushrooms so much, but I do, and your little one will for certain.

Grab a sewing machine and construct your own DIY coloring books (tip use recycled paper).

This is not so much fun as it is wicked cool - one town bans plastic water bottles! Yay.

The cutest outdoor playhouse made with reclaimed windows you’ve ever seen. A great fun reuse view and would be awesome for kids or relaxing adults.
