Personal  
The Playwoods Company is located in Greensboro, N.C.--a moderate city in the middle of the State. Having retired from a long military career, Jim started making wooden toys in 1988 during his last tour in Hawaii. He has always loved woodworking since his childhood. However, he got into the toy making business because he was given some woodworking equipment by his family as a father's day gift. After retirement and nothing to do, he started tinkering with wooden toys for gifts to his children and others in the neighborhood. He became obsessed and quite engrossed in his projects. He was committed to continue making quality wooden toys with detail; toys that are functional, interactive and interchangeable; toys that enhanced both fine and gross motor skills and encourage child development; toys that are safe and rugged. He wanted to produce whimsical toys that would capture the attention of all ages, both old and young alike. Toys that could become heirlooms and passed down from generation to generation. Now Jim and his wife, Diana, spend most of their time in the workshop eating, breathing and making sawdust! Life is Good!

Product Information  
The Playwoods Company is dedicated to making the highest quality top of the line wooden toys. Our toys captivate and stimulate the creative imagination of children and adults alike. We use hard pine for most of our products but select each piece based on grain and beauty. We use fine hardwoods such as Douglas Fir, Pine, Maple, and Ash with Cherry, Rubber Tree and Popular for accent to give different natural wood colors. Our toys are designed and engineered to be simple, safe, and durable. The handcrafted details, along with the beauty of the wood grain, bring joy to every owner. Children love to play with our toys. Our toys will last a lifetime and can be passed down from generation to generation. Our goal is to place our quality toys in homes, classrooms, daycare centers, and on many business office desks.
