Great News! My little love-letter to Fatherhood made it on Sprig Toy's list of favorite blogs!

For those of you unfamiliar with Sprig Toys, look no further than my reviews of their Dino Rig, their Dolphin Explorer Boat, or the coup-de-gras their Adventure Rig. 

Green toys that'll last a lifetime, inspire creative play, and smell like fresh-cut wood? That's Sprig!

Hold onto your butts.

Tick-tock, Tick-tock.  That's the sound of time running out.

Never fear, though, because SuperRad Dad is here with another fantastic offering from Sprig Toys. 

What does the Mu love? He loves to smash things and he loves things that smash things.  This is why the Dino Adventure Rig from Sprig, which combines a truck to smash and two dinosaurs that smash, is like a slice of heaven to a 2 year old.

Though the Sprig Discovery Rig has gone on plenty of adventures both in the Family Room and outside on walks, one place it fears - due to its kinetic generator and other electrical parts - is the water.

Enter the Sprig Dolphin Explorer Boat.

Equal parts durable and adorable, (which is what the company's slogan should be... you're welcome Marketing.) the Dolphin Explorer comes with a Skipper with removable rain hat and backpack, a rescue boat, mommy and baby dolphin, and a life preserver.

It's undeniable: I love Sprig Toys. 

I stopped into our local Mom 'n' Pop hardware store right before Thanksgiving to pick up some specialized items that the Big Box down the road didn't have.  There in the front display was a collection of chunky, rugged-looking toys that looked cobbled straight out of Santa's workshop.   I picked one up to examine it and found it without any licensing tie-ins, "X-treme" packaging, or obnoxious mascots.  It was simple, it was classic, it was Sprig.

Something about the toy line spoke to me, and I knew I had to get it for Mu.  His interest in big tucks, adventuring, and propensity to smash things required a line of toys that would hold up to toddler abuse, but also allow him to fill in the storyline of his adventure - not to have his adventure dictated to him by the folks in Marketing.

And that's where the beauty of Sprig comes in: the Sprig guys are faceless, which means they are ready for whatever your child can imagine.
