I still have flat packed shelving I bought when my son was born six years ago that I haven't put together. This doesn't bode well for a flat packed toy! Which is what the playsets from Kroom Toys are. I really did have to try these out though, as they are absolutely everything I have ever wanted in a toy. Joy of joys, they're not made of plastic.

Kroom make products that are eco-friendly. Everything is made from 60% recycled card and all the products are also fully recyclable.

There's a whole range of stuff for children, including storage boxes, play sets and toys. Importantly, the toys look like they're a lot of fun. The toys are distributed in the UK by Little Helper, and you can also buy them directly from their website.

I received the Noah's Ark and Dylan Fire Station to try out. The Noah's Ark playset has an RRP of £24.99. The Dylan Fire Station also has an RRP of £24.99. Delivery on the site costs from £1.99, depending on the size and weight of the items.

Tesco Direct are continuing their clearance with this Playmobil Noah’s Ark for £13.47 instead of £19.97. It’s £20 at Boots and £20.35 on offer at Amazon.

• Take along Noah’s Ark and all the animals too

The Playmobil Ark is a lovely, chunky toy, apparently, and great for little hands to grab on to. Not too little as Playmobil recommend it to over 18 month olds, but still, enough that they won’t choke on the parts.

The Ark comes with two characters, Noah and his wife – her name was Naamah, if you’re interested. They man the ship while the animals board, and the animals that come along in the Playmobil version of the journey are two giraffes, two elephants, two zebras, two lions and two massively out of proportion doves (so Africa’s biggies are safe from extinction, at least!)

These are great bath toys, or normal toys and make for great solo play or together play – and hopefully with two of each, there’ll be less arguing over who plays with what.

The roof of the Ark lifts to contain all the animals and makes for great storage.
