THERE ARE MANY USEFUL THINGS
AMONG THOSE WHICH ARE THROWN AWAY. 
JUST THINK ABOUT IT!

LET THE CHILDREN OF THE WORLD PLAY

Il Rigiocattolo a used-toy sale, is the name of an initiative created by The Country of the Rainbow Movement, promoted in various European cities during the weeks before Christmas.

 

 

Toys are frequently made of polluting materials, and for this reason we must try to use them as long as possible. Rigiocattolo is for recycling toys, restoring them for other children and making them live again, starting a chain reaction of conscious consumption and of education to solidarity starting from the playground. After an initial phase, over these last three years the initiative has grown to involve 10 Italian cities and has spread throughout Germany, Spain and Belgium.
