About Tegu-- Inspired by the classic wooden toys of Europe, brothers Chris and Will Haughey founded Tegu to pursue the notion of breathing new life into a classic - reinventing the wooden block with embedded magnets. After a meaningful trip to Honduras, they also wanted to address unemployment, neglected natural and human resources, and the need for entrepreneurship there. Today, they run a shop in Honduras that produces the durable, safe, and all-natural building blocks made from sustainably harvested tropical hardwoods. In addition, they offer stable, living wage jobs, help to give children the opportunity to attend school, and work to reforest Honduras by planting more than 34,500 trees to date.With this in mind, Tegu creates classic toys that serve as a foundation for exploration while stimulating mental growth, imaginative capacity, and physical dexterity.
