Kinfolk Pantry

Kinfolk Pantry

Turn a tub of dough into a whole afternoon! Kinfolk Pantry makes the play dough tools that keep little hands busy far longer than you'd expect — cutters, stamps, rollers, moulds, and an extruder, all in gorgeous themed sets your child will ask for by name.

There's a set for every obsession. Woodland animals, safari, under the sea, pond life, dinosaurs of the fairytale variety, transportation, pizza, ice cream, tools, insects, flowers, butterflies and their life cycle, plus seasonal favourites for Halloween, Christmas and Easter. Pair them with a roller or a stamp set and one tin of dough becomes a whole world.

Here's the part we love: these tools are as thoughtful as they are fun. This family-owned Australian brand makes everything from recycled wood-mill sawdust and plant-based PLA, and packages it in compostable and recycled materials — no petroleum plastic anywhere.

What are eco cutters?
Eco cutters are play dough cutters made from biodegradable, plant-based materials instead of conventional plastic. Kinfolk Pantry's are pressed from recycled wood-mill sawdust and PLA, a plant-based material made from fermented corn starch, so they're non-toxic and kind to the planet.

What are Kinfolk Pantry play dough cutters made of?
Recycled, untreated wood-mill sawdust combined with plant-based PLA. Everything arrives in compostable and recycled packaging.

What play dough tools do you need?
A few cutters in a theme your child loves, a roller for flattening, and a stamp or mould for texture will keep most little ones happily busy. Sets are a lovely starting point, and an extruder adds a whole new kind of fun.

What age are play dough cutters for?
Kinfolk Pantry recommends their eco cutters for children aged 3 and up.

How do you care for eco cutters?
Wipe them clean and let them dry rather than leaving them sitting in dough or soaking in water, and they'll last through years of play.

Where can I buy eco play dough cutters in Canada?
Right here at The Playful Peacock. We're a Canadian, mom-run toy shop, and we ship across Canada, hand-packed with care.

Pick a theme, roll out the dough, and clear your afternoon — this is the good stuff!

The Playful Peacock Difference

  • About the Playful Peacock

    The Playful Peacock was created in 2021 to curate creative, open-ended play for curious children. The Playful Peacock is privileged to operate in Tkaronto/Toronto. 

  • Quality Toys Designed to Last 

    We are steadfast in our selection of toy makers that we work with.

     Our offerings are from Canadian, female-owned, BIPOC and/or family-owned brands that are firmly rooted in environmental practices with strong ethical standards. We adamantly align ourselves with makers we are proud of and who are equally dedicated to sustainability, transparency and ethical labour, including paying living and fair wages. The majority of the toys these brands make are handmade, natural wooden toys that forge limitless play for kids to enjoy for years.

  • The Handmade Difference

    The Playful Peacock’s toys are built with quality and care to last for generations. All of the toys are safe and made with individualized love and attention using a high-caliber of materials and finishes that do not include any harmful additives. Our toys will quickly become an heirloom through their high-quality and endless enjoyment. 

  • Materials Matter

    Plastic toys are typically mass-produced and easily breakable. These toys can contribute to sweatshops, unfair labour conditions and pollution in general.

    While wooden toys are a step in the right direction, not all wooden toys are made the same. There are many wooden dupes to be aware of cheap, mass-produced wooden toys that are just as harmful as plastic! For example, softwood and plywood can chip and splinter easily, while non-handcrafted wooden toys often are filled with harmful toxic paints, finishes, and sealants. 

    Consciously opting for ethical, handcrafted wooden toys (renewable wood is even better) is safer for your child, is way more dependable and a kinder contributor to our already fragile planet. 

    The manufacturing process our makers use considers Mother Earth first through strict FSC Certifications, non-toxic paint, and planet-friendly materials across every single product. After placing an order, you will receive your newly beloved toy in 99% plastic-free, biodegradable, recyclable and compostable packaging, down to the stickers and tape.

  • The Right Toy At The Right Time 

    Children are naturally drawn to play toys that they can master and that is right for their particular stage of development.

    With a wide range of toys available for kids ages 0-1, 1-2, 2-3 and 3+,  you can ensure the toy is safe, age-appropriate, and developmentally appropriate, too. The majority of our toys focus on fun and subtle learning, and open-ended play, while being Montessori approved.

  • Ethical Toys Making A Difference 

    We are a purpose-first brand and a business second.

    With a deep awareness that the toy industry must do better, we are committed to our part through advocacy for a range of social justice causes, environmental advancement and stringent criteria for makers. We are changemakers and give back through every purchase by donating meals to children in need across 26 Indigenous communities within Canada.
