What are HappyMais: Natural arts and crafts material made with GM-free certified cornstarch and dyed with non-toxic food colorings. You can use them to build just about any old thing you can think of and there’s no glue needed. HappyMais stick together with water.

Eco-perks:

• 100% biodegradable
• Non-toxic
• For every box sold, the manufacturer makes a donation to the Earth Fund Association.
• If you buy from Peek A Green you’ll get a tree planted for your purchase.

See Cedar’s take on this craft material below – neither of us like talking on camera or being on camera much, which you’ll likely be able to tell.

There’s a boy’s set and girl’s set available, which frankly is kind of silly since this is an any gender sort of toy, but that’s how they come. Each set comes with over 700 pieces in various bright colors, sizes and pre-cut shapes to help children with their creations, a natural cellulose sponge, a Mater-Bi knife (made from cornstarch) and a cardboard sheet with pop-out designs – flowers & jewels shapes for the girls or pop-out monsters & insects shapes for the boys. Either set would make a great gift or summer activity. Cedar loves his.

Has your child ever played with these?
