Made by Me! trucks come to you in pieces: one truck body, four axels, and four wheels. Your child puts it together and decorates it in her own style (completely optional, of course). For children ages 3 and up (contains small parts). See also the Made by Me! bug. Made in Vermont.

Materials: Unfinished pine wood.

Features:

• A great do-it-yourself project for young children (over age 3)
• Use as a birthday party activity or favor

Note to composters: The bottom of the truck is stamped with the name of the manufacturer and the date the truck was made, in order to comply with Federal law. We recommend sanding this off if the truck ends up in the compost. Of course, depending on how a child decorates the truck, the finished product may or may not be compostable. The manufacturer recommends using glue to stabilize the axels. We aren’t excited about putting glue in the compost, so we made our truck without glue and it works just fine.
