The Toy industry is the most plastic-intensive industries in the world, producing over USD 22b worth of toys each year. Due to its short life span and mostly not recyclable, 80% end up in our landfills. By promoting a circular economy for families to share toys and children's equipment, it can reduce the use of plastics, carbon emission but most of all, educate our next generation to start a sustainable habit at a young age.

Happy Baton is HK's first online toy rental subscription, with credible partners from medical and educational fields. Each toy box is curated based on the child's developmental needs and grows with the child each month. Our toys and equipment are mostly made from sustainable materials like wood with accredited certificates that are safe for young children.
