About
us
The Co-operative
Eco-games of Living Earth Games
are invented and designed by Lizet Frijters. While home educating her
three children, Lizet started to look for new tools to make learning
fun and entertaining. After designing a few games and the excitement
from friends, she decided to publish them and
Living Earth Games got born.
It
has been a rather challenging journey. We needed to find our way of how
to produce them. One thing was clear, we wanted them to be as
environmentally friendly as possible. We had the choice between going
for the big production or small scale.
After a few years of
letting it go, Lizet is now working on taking on the manufacturing from
home on a small scale. Until now it has been a lot of researching,
thinking, learning and trying. We manufacture from
home.
Check out our
games page for more information on the manufacturing.

From the
designer:
"My
constant desire to design new things, is my way to express my
creativity. I have been a fibre artist for years, this doesn't stop me
though to push the boundaries wherever I can. I am curious to learn new
techniques and explore new materials. The
games came as a nice surprise to myself. I just felt that this was
something I wanted to take on and now I want to share them with the
world.
I am often inspired by nature, the environment and my social
surroundings.
I
am also involved in the manufacturing of the games and am doing a lot
of research to be able to produce them locally, in an environmentally
friendly way." |
