Fill in the blankZ^® for Endless Creativity

Coloring books, crayons and markers are great fun for kids of all ages and allow them to express artistic creativity. However, when all the pages are colored, there is no magic wand a parent can wave to reset the book back to its original state, so the child can begin all over again. Glenn Rudin, founder of Always Been Creative, Inc. is well aware that times are tough financially, and he feels that parents and creative individuals will appreciate a toy that stimulates creativity, but can be used over and over again. Glenn is the inventor of blankZ, a new series of stuffed toys that are a blank canvas for kids to color, with included watercolor markers.

blankZ plush toys allow children to express individuality by making their own designs and colors on the stuffed friend. If they decide to decorate their blankZ with hearts and pink accents for Valentine’s Day and wish they had done something different when St. Patrick’s Day rolls around, it’s not a problem. The special markers erase in the wash, so parents just need to toss the animal in the laundry with their other clothes and out comes a blank canvas for the child to redesign any way they like. The endless possibilities may provide the closest thing to a magic wand that parents will ever have!

The Series 1 Edition of blankZ features seven stuffed blank canvas animals just waiting for the right child to give them some color and personality. Each blankZ animal comes packaged in a clear, full-color gift box designed to look like an old-fashioned animal train car and contains washable water-color markers in black, red, yellow, green and blue. Also included are instructions and a reversible blankZ drop card for display that can be colored with the animal’s habitat. Each toy is adorned with its own removable hangtag, which has a poem describing the character.

BlankZ Series 1 animals include Bare aka bear, Bare Hare aka bunny, Ele-Faint aka elephant, Un-Sealed aka seal, No Bully aka bull, White Hound aka dog and Bloink aka pig. BlankZ animals are sustainable toys that kids can design again and again. Each blankZ retails for $13.99 and is recommended for ages 5 and up.
