plastic objects often aren’t designed with longevity as a goal
I feel like this sums it upQuoteplastic objects often aren’t designed with longevity as a goalI definitely rethink having toy collections because of this issue.
Some of these plastics will dissolve under particular cleaning products, and some are more vulnerable to cracking.
I cant stand all of this one time use plastic we have in this world! I wish I could never buy anything in plastic anymore. But I cant being where I live. Its hard to be different!

But I cant being where I live. Its hard to be different!It takes time and creativity to decide to use different storage methods. I recently saved all my food jars (for like a month, LOL) and I painted their lids and sealed them. Now they are all color-coordinated to my kitchen and I can use the bulk foods store. My kid is a picky eater and she is heavily influenced by food marketing (like all kids) so I am trying to eliminate the plastic packaging. Seriously, if a snack comes in an orange wrapper and another brand of the same snack is also in red, and she LIKES the design of the red one, if you offer her an orange-wrapped snack, not a red one, she thinks it's a different snack and won't touch it. Goodbye logos and colorful boxes!
I wish we had one of those bulk stores like some other countries do! Those zero waste stores look so neat!
Oh yes those companies sure know how to market to kids! Its sad when I think about it now as an adult! Yes I love to use my older jars also! I have all my noodles in jars and recycle all the boxes they come in. I don't like to buy them in plastic bags. I wish we had one of those bulk stores like some other countries do! Those zero waste stores look so neat!
