Happy Mais eco bricks are made with maize extract and coloured with non toxic food dyes so they are totally safe for young children.  Completely biodegradable and compostable, they are very easy to use to build anything. The pieces stick together like magic just by moistening the side you need to attach no glue necessary just natural ecological maize extract and water. The images below are only some of the great sculptures you can make; the possibilities are enormous with a little imagination.

These eco bricks are a great alternative to plastic bricks and are so much better than plasticine, they don’t make terrible marks under the little fingernails and you don’t spread around the house the little pieces of plasticine that somehow find their way under little feet that then spread them all over the house…including your favourite rug! No I have never been a great fun of plasticine.

Such a natural product could not live up to its name if it wasn’t ethical too. In fact the manufacturing company, Ecotoys Srl, makes a donation for every packet sold to the “Soleterre” association (Earth Fund Association), which protects and conserves large areas of tropical rain forest.
