The Toy Book

About

Welcome to the latest issue of The Toy Book! As you'll notice, we've undergone a well-deserved makeover, and we're really excited about it. While we've got a new look, however, we will continue to be your source for the latest toys and games, toy industry news, and top toy trends. We can't wait to hear what you think! Tweet @toybook and let us know, or simply hit reply! In this issue, we take a look at this year's Spielwarenmesse, with an inside peek at what's new at the biggest toy trade fair in the world. We also take a look at the two hottest trends in the activities category: adult coloring books and kids' cooking toys. Be sure to take a look at how these categories are evolving this year. We also focus on collectible toys—those tiny toys that send kids and parents to your store in droves, on the hunt for the latest pieces for their collections. Check out what consumers will be hunting for this year! There's so much more inside! Click our (freshly redesigned) cover to read all about it!
