This Week’s Featured Toy Pitches

Our Toy and Games Agent Riley Wilkinson has been working with our artists on some fabulous toy concepts for you. Feast your eyes!

Check out this fantastic Felt Activity Kit by Zoë Ingram.

Children and families will build memories together as they decorate a holiday evergreen tree or a woodland oak. Felt pieces and a wood base are tactile and living room-worthy!

Next we have “Don’t Drop Dinner” by Erica Root!

A balanced meal is a real challenge in this stacking race game for 2-4 players. Dinner guests take turns piling their platter, morsel by morsel. If your plate topples over, you’ll go hungry. The glutton with their heaping plate intact wins dessert! A game of skill, this balancing buffet is sure to fill up any giggly belly.
