Selecta board games

[cam15]

We have the Selecta Laundry game which we like alot and I was wondering if there are any other Selecta games we should purchase before they are unavailable in the US. My kids are 4 and 6. Thanks

We enjoy putting the tiles together in Varialand

Isn't it sad that Selecta is pulling out?

There are many I want too... The top of my list is Pino Sortina

Followed by Viva Topa (which might be a little bit old for DD yet)

I also want Hand in Hand

We played Piccobella at a friend's. I wound up making a version. Sadly, I don't think the others ones are so easy to reproduce.

We also have Dwarves and Dice which we like to play.

Here is a link to all the Selecta games (from their site)- it has pretty good descriptions.

I LOVE Mago Magino - definitely get that one! It's really simple and I don't know why but it's even fun for me.

Hi. I'm a member of the Handmade Toy Alliance. You may have heard of us through Mothering or seen some of our press releases popping up in your local press.

Personally and professionally I am very sad that Selecta is pulling out of the US. If you value their items the way I do, would you please let your voices be heard? It helps to have consumers let the powers that be know that this law is not keeping kids safe, but simply limiting their choices to big box businesses that can afford to comply with the law (and, ironically, they are the one's who dumped crappy toys on the market in the first place). Here is what you can do!

First, if you haven't already, please vote at change.org. We are currently in 4th place and are in position for being one of the 10 ideas presented to President-elect Obama and have a national campaign initiated to change the CPSIA. Email everyone you know to vote today! Voting ends on January 15th.

In addition, please email, fax, write and call your Congress people. To find your representatives contact information, go to:

They need to hear our voices loud and clear. Tell them that you think the law isn't helping keep children safe, but limiting the choices of the American consumer and putting the businesses that make wonderful Waldorf and handmade items out of business.

Thank you!
