TOY FAIR NEW YORK 2019
PLUS-PLUS
Plus-Plus introduces Plus-Plus Mystery Makers, a blind bag construction toy designed for kids ages 5 and up. Once kids choose their Mystery Maker box, they can scan the QR code for a swipe-to-build online experience, or they can use the included instructions. The first series includes six different models for kids to collect. Plus-Plus adds four new items to its construction line in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969. The Astronaut, Lunar Lander, Saturn V Rocket, Apollo 11 Series and Lunar Landing Baseplate Builder are designed for kids ages 5 and up. New Plus-Plus Super Tubes contain more than 500 pieces for creative, portable play. Kids can construct tacos, sushi, watermelon, snow cones, and more with the 70 pieces included in the Plus-Plus Food Tubes.
GUAVA TOYS Guava Toys introduces the Gold Galore Bucket, designed for kids ages 8 and up. Kids can decorate the included butterscotch-scented slime with gold glitter and nuggets, just like YouTube creator Guava Juice himself.
KLUTZ Kids can customize their own spa days with the Make Your Own Glitter Face Masks kit, from Klutz. Kids ages 8 and up can make five face masks using the specially formulated peel-off gooey face mask mix or the included sheet masks. Once the mask dries, kids can reuse the included containers and silicone brush to create other at-home face mask recipes using natural ingredients and easy-to-follow recipes. Kids can sew a soft, sparkly decorative pillow with the Sew Your Own Unicorn Cake Pillow, available this summer. Kids ages 10 and up can learn how to sew a pillow using different techniques of stitches. With faux fur, metallic gold lamé, pom poms, and felt pieces, kids can decorate the cake-shaped pillow with different accents, such as a unicorn. Once kids finish the pillow, they can display it on the included cake stand. Klutz introduces a new line of Klutz Mini Kits: Make Mini Erasers. Designed for kids 8 and up, each kit comes in different themes, including cuties, animals, sweets, and aliens. Each kit includes eraser clay, molded eyes, papercraft scenes, and a shaping tool to help kids make 15 shaped mini erasers. With My Squishy Soap Dough, kids can mix the included glycerin and soap powder together, and then mold dough like clay into unique shapes, such as a unicorn, a dinosaur, or a narwhal. Designed for kids ages 4 and up, the craft kit includes everything needed to make these squishy soaps. Kids ages 8 and up can engineer a real, working FM radio with the Maker Lab: Radio Boombox kit. Kids can connect electronic components to a receiver to create a working boombox, complete with an antenna and tuning buttons. Kids will learn about the electromagnetic spectrum, wireless communications, and the transmission of radio waves while they build.
