In a technology-driven world, child-driven play has become the exception rather than the norm. Parents searching for non-electronic toys have brought a resurgence to open-ended creativity and play. From Frobi blocks to Tinker Toys, the love of creating and building appeals to children of all ages. Answering that call for creative play, Miller Goodman creates wooden toys that are artistic and fun, with endless play possibilities. Design combined with the feel of wood and bright colors bring their PlayShapes and FaceMakers to the forefront of boutique toy stores and family homes around the world.

Some children’s brands focus on “the look” while others capitalize on “the message.” be you. be true. promotes creativity, involvement and achievement among girls. Envision a young woman in a T-shirt that encourages her to “be a warrior” or “be a band geek.” Other shirts, featuring the illustrated little miss pink character, suggest that girls can “be a pal,” “be awesome,” and even “be nerdy,” a message not heard often enough. The point be you. be true. makes is that the simple act of being oneself is what counts.

Little girls grow up to be lawyers, astronauts and neurosurgeons so why shouldn’t they start flexing their powers young? Dressing up is a great way to try on an ambition. While neither boys nor girls can fly (but don’t tell them), both can feel strong and powerful when emulating a character who can outrun the wind and zoom around the stars. Bring on energy and authority and encourage girls to dream big; it can start with something as simple as a cape. Who knows? That little bundle of pink and cream might just grow up to be a world leader!

Who hasn’t wanted a second chance, the opportunity to start over? Wouldn’t it be great to go back and have the chance to change something in the past? Since there are no time machines, the best we can do is to try to make the future a better place for ourselves and the people we care about. Parents are excited to have the chance to give children all the things they never had — or could have. The brains behind BeginAgain toys have taken those ideas and created products that match children’s desires to be creative with adults’ desires to promote sustainable living and healthy toys.
