Wonderie Down By The Pond Playcloth

Down by the pond, spot a heron standing tall, a kingfisher flying by, and a dragonfly buzzing around. This vivid and detailed cloth invites all young nature lovers to explore the wonders beneath and within a pond.

Your child decides how to use the cloth, and that’s where the magic lies…

The cloths are printed on GOTs Certified Organic Cotton, with reactive dyes as they are one the most eco friendly ways to dye fabrics. They contain no heavy metals or other known toxic substances and do not need mordants. The fixation or absorption rate of low-impact dyes is at least 70%, creating less waste water runoff than conventional dyeing processes. They are applied at relatively low temperatures (30ºC compared to the 100ºC needed for direct dyes), saving energy, and require controlled amounts of salt and alkali. dye cycle is shorter than it is for other dye processes, meaning less water, salt and chemicals are needed.
