At Kid Dynamo™, we believe it is time to usher in a new age of responsible consumerism; where form, materials, and function play equal parts. Where informed decisions about the products our children play with, live with, and wear are based on quality materials, design, and where they are manufactured. We believe that by making responsible and informed decisions, our children and our planet will benefit.
Why do we feel so strongly about where and how the products we sell are made? Because we, Erin Carter, mother of two small children, and Keri Levy, mother of one small child, make these kinds of decisions every day. We are concerned about our kid’s health and the ambient environment in which they live, eat, breathe, play. The products that we buy for our children make an impact on their atmosphere as well as the environment at large. Our dream was to create a progressive and environmentally conscious company that promotes natural, sustainable products with a certain cool modernism to the design aesthetic for our and your children.
Kid Dynamo™ has done the research for you. The merchandise that we carry is organic, natural, and eco-friendly; free from harmful chemical additives, volatile organic compounds, pthalates, PBE’s, PVC’s, formaldehyde, and lead. The companies that produce the items that we carry are socially responsible, providing fair labor conditions as well as environmentally-friendly manufacturing processes. Kid Dynamo™ also believes in recycling/upcycling and the use of recyclable materials, like vintage fabrics and recycled water bottles. We have been very particular when creating or choosing the items we carry and we stand behind all our products. We have taken the guess work out of the equation and you, as a customer, can be confident in the items that you purchase.
A note about our shipping and packaging practices: Several of the items that Kid Dynamo carries come to you straight from the manufacturer. By not having these items shipped to our warehouse and then on to you saves on the amount of fuel expended and toxins released into the atmosphere. All items that are shipped from the Kid Dynamo warehouse are inspected before being packed. The packaging materials we use are recycled, recyclable, and/or reused. We do not purchase plastic or Styrofoam materials, though we will reuse materials that come to our warehouse from manufacturers to pack your orders. Please recycle, compost, or reuse these packaging materials, keeping our landfills free from unnecessary waste.
Thank you,
Erin Carter and Keri Levy, Founders
