Plan Toys makes some sweet toys, like this Banjo. Like the rest of the line, the banjo is made of rubber wood from trees that have stopped producing latex and kiln-dried to insure little pests don’t make it from the forest to your home. Kids can strum and “tune” the strings, or drum on the hollow but sturdy body. And summer’s the perfect time for to keep little hands busy, and preferably practicing their new art outside.
Available from Amazon for $25.
