Around the Year on the Farm | Mini Playsilk
We are so excited to share this limited edition collaboration between Sarah's Silks and illustrator Stephanie Green of Wilded Family. Around the Year on the Farm Mini Playsilks are 21" x 21", made from heavyweight, 100% pure mulberry silk.
Around the Year Playsilks encourage little ones to recognize the turning of the seasons and cultivate their awareness of the Earth's natural rhythms. Families use Around the Year Playsilks to decorate nature tables, and celebrate birthdays and seasonal holidays. Around the Year on the Farm celebrates the seasonal changes on Earth as we travel around the sun.
Children and adults will delight in the spring flowers and seed planting, summer bees, farmhouse and chickens, autumn harvest and cozy winter feeding the animals and playing in snow.

Meet the Makers
Sarah’s Silks kids costumes, dress up clothing and children's toys inspire imaginative play. Drawing from the philosophies of Waldorf education and her own childhood of imaginative play, Sarah has been designing Playsilks and other natural, eco-friendly wooden and silk toys for over 28 years. The Sarah’s Silks family is a diverse group of people brought together to inspire the imagination of children around the world through open-ended toys made from natural, earth-friendly materials.
From the beginning, Sarah Silk's has prioritized a moral responsibility to the earth and its people. It has always been important that their manufacturing process be sensitive to the environment, and that the people involved at every step of the process are treated with respect, receive a fair wage, and are not expected to work in uncomfortable or hazardous conditions. They have the pleasure of visiting the facilities where the silks are made, and meeting the skilled people who hand-dye and hem their products in the beautiful villages of Suzhou and Nanchong. Integral to this community is the celebration of the incredible craftspeople that make Playsilks! They are medium sized, family-run businesses that have grown with them for over 20 years, in turn helping each other to shape the businesses they are today.
