    Ever thought about Toys as an industry? We started to. And what we discovered wasn't what we expected.... We thought we'd be finding out about how a largely plastics-based industry is trying to become more sustainable, and the consumer trends driving it in that direction. We ended by seeing some truly wonderful work of companies who are doing great things... just because. Particular shout out to Elif Atmaca at Toyi, supporting Madeeha Ansari's inspiring work with Cities for Children. And Heather Welch at Edx Education supporting a variety of educational outreach programmes across Africa and Asia... Have a read. The sun is shining.

    Kızlar pembe giyer ve bebeklerle oynar; erkekler mavi giyer ve arabalarla oynar… Bu klişe düşünceler size tanıdık geliyor mu? Oyun oynamak için gerçekten cinsiyetin bir önemi var mı? Bugün 8 Mart Dünya Kadınlar Günü! Yalnızca kadınların öne çıkarıldığı bir gün olarak değil, aynı zamanda toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliğini konuşmak için bir fırsat olarak görüyoruz. Oyuncaklar sadece birer eşya değil, çocuklarımızın dünyasını şekillendiren araçlardır. Ancak ne yazık ki, toplumsal cinsiyet stereotipleri, çocuklarımızın oyunlarını ve hayal dünyalarını dar bir kutuya sıkıştırıyor. Kızlar bebeklerle oynamalı, erkekler ise arabalarla… Peki ya bu stereotipler, gerçekten kimseye yardımcı oluyor mu? Bizce hayır. Her çocuğun kendini özgürce ifade edebilmesi ve ilgi alanlarına göre oyuncak seçebilmesi önemli. Oyuncakların cinsiyeti olmadığını ve her çocuğun istediği gibi oyun oynamasının en temel hakkı olduğunu savunuyoruz.  Bunun için Toyi olarak, cinsiyet ayrımcılığına dayalı oyuncak seçimine karşı; tüm çocuklar için  cinsiyet rollerinden bağımsız ve açık uçlu oyun deneyimi sunuyoruz. Bu 8 Mart'ta, oyuncak seçiminde cinsiyet eşitliği için siz de kendi mesajınızı paylaşın ve birlikte her çocuğun kendini özgürce ifade edebileceği bir dünya için birlikte mücadele edelim! // Girls wear pink and play with dolls; boys wear blue and play with cars… Do these cliché thoughts sound familiar to you? Does gender really matter when it comes to playing? Today is March 8th, International Women's Day! We take this day not only as a celebration of women but also as an opportunity to discuss gender equality. Toys are not just objects; they are tools that shape our children's worlds. Unfortunately, gender stereotypes confine our children's play and imaginations into narrow boxes. Girls should play with dolls, and boys with cars… But do these stereotypes really help anyone? We don't think so. It's important for every child to express themselves freely and choose toys based on their interests. Toys are gender-neutral, and every child should be able to play however they want. At Toyi, we offer our children a gender-neutral and open-ended play experience, rejecting toy choices based on gender discrimination. This March 8th, let's all share our messages for gender equality in toy decisions and together, let's stand up for a world where every child can express themselves freely! #playtoyi #equalplay #equalfuture #genderequality #genderlessplay #toyindustry #cinsiyeteşitliği #cinsiyetsizoyun

    Şubat ayı bizim için oldukça hareketli geçiyor. Unutulmaz anlardan birkaçını paylaşmak istiyoruz. 🌎 Ara tatil döneminde tam 5 gün boyunca çocuklarla birlikte Oyunbaz ve Sürdürülebilir bir dünya hayali kurduk! Türk Telekom katkılarıyla Atatürk Kültür Merkezi’nde gerçekleştirdiğimiz çocuk oyun atölyelerinde 4-8 yaş grubundaki oyun uzmanlarıyla tanıştık. “Oyunbaz ve Sürdürülebilir bir dünyada nasıl canlılar yaşar? Hangi araçlar olur?” gibi ilham veren sorularla başladığımız atölyelerde birbirinden yaratıcı karakter ve oyuncaklar ortaya çıktı! Oyuncakların hikayesi anlattığımız kapanış bölümünde çocuklar sürdürülebilir bir geleceğe dair umut dolu fikirlerini paylaştılar ve hepimize ilham oldular. ✨ Gelecek atölyelerde oyun uzmanlarıyla tekrar buluşmak için sabırsızlanıyoruz! 🎈 // We'd like to share a few unforgettable moments. 🌎 During the mid-term break, we spent a full 5 days imagining a Playful and Sustainable world with children! With the support of Türk Telekom, we organized children's play workshops at the Atatürk Cultural Center, where we met with play experts aged 4-8. Starting with inspiring questions like "How would creatures live in a playful and sustainable world? What kind of tools would there be?" in these workshops, incredibly creative characters and toys emerged! In the closing section where the stories of the toys were told, children shared green ideas for a sustainable future. ✨ We can't wait to meet with play experts again in future workshops! 🎈 #playtoyi #turnwithtoyi #ecotoy #sustainableplay #upcycling #playandlearn #learningthroughplay #imaginativeplay #creativeplay #playideas #playactivities

    Geçtiğimiz sene depremin yıkıcı etkileriyle başa çıkmak zorunda kalan topluluklar için uzun ve zorlu bir süreçti. Kriz ve afet sonrası durumlardan en çok etkilenen gruplardan biri de maalesef çocuklar oluyor. Bu bilinçle, çocuklarla birlikte oyun oynayarak travma sonrası iyileşme sürecine destek oluyoruz. İlk günden itibaren gündemde tutmaya gayret ettiğimiz çocuk oyun hakkını desteklemek amacıyla yeniden deprem bölgesindeydik ve Adıyaman’daki Eczacıbaşı-TEV İlkokulu öğrencileriyle oyunun gücünü paylaştık! Oyun, çocukların yaşadıkları zorluklarla başa çıkma ve dayanıklılıklarını artırma yolunda önemli bir araç. Toyi olarak çocukların oyun aracılığıyla güçlenmesini ve iyileşmesini desteklemeye devam edeceğiz 🎈 // Last year was a challenging and arduous period for groups dealing with the devastating effects of the earthquake. Unfortunately, one of the most affected groups in post-crisis situations tends to be children. With this awareness, we are supporting the post-trauma healing process by playing together with children. We have been striving to advocate for children's right to play, which led us back to the earthquake-affected areas where we shared the power of play with students from the Eczacıbaşı-TEV Primary School in Adıyaman. Play is a significant tool for children to cope with challenges and enhance their resilience. As Toyi, we will continue to support children in strengthening and healing through play. 🎈

    Attended Sharon's speech at the world's largest toy fair, Spielwarenmesse. Just like she said: “We don't need any new toys :)” It's a bold statement, unfortunately, it's true. Like many other industries, we're producing and consuming way more than necessary in the toy industry. Sharon Keilthy, an Eco-Toy Activist and Co-founder at Sustainable Toys Action Consulting (STAC), is a great inspiration for us with her efforts to make the toy industry more sustainable. Today, in the Toys Go Green area, we discussed what needs to be done to leave a better world for children. Every choice we make affects the future of our children, and we take this seriously. That's why Toyi pieces are produced from recycled plastics to protect nature. Using recycled plastic is beneficial because it recycles existing waste without the need for new resources, contributing to nature conservation. Thanks to our eco-friendly creative play kits, children don't need to buy new toys as they can create unlimited possibilities with a Toyi kit and their imagination! Together, we will make the world a more sustainable playground for all 💚🌎🌱 #PlayToyi #ToysGoGreen #Sustainability #RecycledPlastic #ecotoys #SharonKeilthy #ToyFair #ToyIndustry #Spielwarenmesse
