Buyers, retailers and the media were all abuzz in the ALEX booth at Toy Fair 2010!  ALEX showcased over 100 exciting new products in all seven of its categories of toys: baby, preschool, bath, art, craft, style and play.

Highlights of the new line include Talk of the Farm, an exciting interactive toy which comes to life as a child moves a truck on a magical talking mat; Foil Bead Maker and Cap It Off jewelry craft kits; and Ready, Set, Go! Trike, a 3-in-1 tricycle that grows as your child does.

In addition, the booth featured a model of an ALEX store-within-a-store which is currently in many Learning Express stores and numerous other specialty stores worldwide.

The American International Toy Fair ran February 14-17 at New York City’s Javits Center.
