Neat-Oh! International will be offering a line of Hot Wheels ZipBin products, giving kids a fun and convenient way to play with and store their Hot Wheels cars.
ZipBin products are collapsible and transportable, feature wipe-clean surfaces and are eco-friendly. They unzip flat to a play mat surface and then zip up, capturing the toys. They are all produced according to exact manufacturing and safety standards, and employ original art.
Ring-A-Thing from HABA has been selected a top-10 finalist in the 2009 Hottest Eco-Friendly Toys under $30 category in the Top Toys Test. The second annual contest was held as a partnership between leading childcare franchise company Goddard Systems and Eco Child’s Play, a leading “green” blog.
Ring-A-Thing introduces children who are used to free play to their first games with rules. (The instructions include three basic game ideas for 1 to 3 players.) The game also helps children learn about colors and sizes.
