Retoy Preschool - education & play for a better world.
Get ready for even more fun with Retoy – the upgraded Retoy is a new preschool concept that allows children to explore their rights and embrace the joy of a circularity.
Transforming into early childhood education
Retoy is leveling up the fun!
We’re developing our Retoy preschool concept through a transformative co-creation process. Soon, even more kids can explore their rights and revel in eco-conscious play during their crucial early years.
We unite fun learning, children’s rights, and sustainable living in a safe, non-toxic environment.
Excitingly, our eco-friendly and popular play initiatives are getting upgraded and ready to expand in our new Retoy format. Our popular swap-and-educate Retoy labs will be back soon. Keep an eye out for more news!
Since the start in 2011 more than half a million children have played with Retoy through our toy swap activities, exhibitions, and non-toxic play areas. The toys swapped by children have saved the world over 300 tonnes of CO2 emissions, compared to if they were bought new ♥.
We primarily played in Sweden, and also had the joy of co-creating pop-up activities in collaboration with the Swedish Institute and the Swedish embassies in the US, China, and Macedonia.
Across these locations, the Retoys method was received with overwhelming enthusiasm and curiosity by hundreds of children.
Participants were eager to explore the opportunities to play our way to a better world by practicing circularity in a way that empowers children’s rights.
Due to family reasons, the founders of Retoys decided to pause the activities in 2018.
And now, we’re excited to wholeheartedly and joyously return to the playground, teaming up with new partners. Together, we’re set to take Retoys’ playful methods to new heights!”
