Toy Fair 2009

We're back from Toy Fair and into the swing of Spring at KidKraft. The show was a great display of all things magical & childlike, and we enjoyed the hub-bub & activity centered around brightly colored toys, fantastic gifts, and novel treats. Noisy booths and creative new products tempted toy buyers (and me, I'm a big kid), and something about the light-hearted atmosphere and frenzy of grownups wondering around made me (a first-time Toy Fairer) feel like Tom Hanks' winsome character in the movie Big.

We overheard a reporter say some 16,000 buyers from 96 countries attended Toy Fair, and we were pleased to see such a positive response in the marketplace, especially during tough economic times. It's nice to remember our original motivation and get back to the basics of business by focusing on creating quality toys & gifts for children. Looking forward to new products and trends this Spring!

Deluxe Fire Rescue wins IParenting Media Award

KidKraft has won yet another award!
The Deluxe Fire Rescue Set was honored by IParenting Media and received the 2009 IParenting Media Award.

The Deluxe Fire Rescue Set received three outside reviews by a licensed childcare facility/school, an expert, a parent, and was also reviewed by the IParenting Committee. The reviewers completed an extensive survey and provided positive feedback including:

• “This set has lots for a child to do! There are several activities that a child could play, and it is very sturdy and durable.”

• “The firehouse and vehicles were very well made, sturdy, brightly colored, had lots of details and were attractive. The building itself was so sturdy… The strong chunky wood vehicles were fun and the children found many ways to play with both the vehicles and firehouse.”

• “Both of our daughters had a lot of fun playing with the ‘Deluxe Fire Rescue Set.’ They played with the toy everyday… Their favorite piece to the set was the dog which they named Sparky.”
