Toddler Talk: Tea Party Sets

What's childhood without pretend tea parties? Introduce your little one to afternoons of pinky-raised tea conversations with one of these affordable child-friendly tea sets:

Green Toys Tea Set

This 17-piece tea set is made entirely from recycled plastic milk bottles—as is everything from Green Toys.

Plan Toys Activity Tea Set

Plan Toys is another one of my favorite environmentally conscious, baby-safe toy companies—and this sturdy tea set (complete with two place settings, including tea bags and sugar cubes) is made from chemical-free materials. I especially love the wooden look.

ALEX Toys Heart Tea Set

If you prefer tin, this tea set comes with a four-place setting, as well as a heart-shaped storage box for easy clean up.

To buy: ALEX Toys, $35
