The blog Mommies With Style just posted about the 2010 NYC Toy Fair. We’re happy to report that they enjoyed the ALEX booth!
“ALEX Toys had an impressive amount of new products. Their Ready, Set, Go Trike is a tricycle that grows with your child, from older baby to preschooler. Comes in red and pink. While their trampoline isn’t new (there’s younger child size and a older child size), it was terrific and very sturdy. I loved their many craft kits – especially the Color My Bag line. They’ve even got Shrinky Dinks!–Since ALEX Toys had so many fabulous products, check out my Whrrl Slideshow of ALEX Toys.”

Amazon.com Blog: Create a Marionette Review

Wendy from the Amazon.com blog Toy Whimsy wrote a nice review about the ALEX Create a Marionette.
“Just when I thought I’d seen every kind of craft kit imaginable, this small surprise jumped out of the box. Three sets let you create and color either a dino, a giraffe, or a princess. Great play…and then more play.”
Each Create a Marionette set comes with everything you need to make an entertaining puppet: craft glue, punch outs, string, and more. Create a whole cast and put on a show!

Review: My Layered Lacing
February 24, 2010 at 17:11 | In ALEX Toys, All About ALEX, Little Hands, Reviews | Leave a CommentTags: ALEX Toys, Family
Katie over at Katies Nesting Spot reviewed quite a few ALEX Toys. Here’s an excerpt from her review on our Lacing Activities products:
This is an activity you can get years of fun out of. These are great for fine motor skills and getting those little fingers nimble and ready for writing.
I have to say I love the foam lacing shapes. I wish I’d purchased these for her before. I like them a lot better than the wooden or cardboard lacing shapes I was more familiar with.
The foam has a little give in it. As toddler hands push and pull on it, it can move a little and sometimes that has enabled my daughter to be able to get the lace through. The pliable nature of the foam makes this a more enjoyable activity for her and I’m not worried about things tearing as it snaps back into place. This product, and many others also by ALEX Toys has also won the National Parenting Center’s Seal of Approval.

Review: Undercover Super Sleuth Kit
February 10, 2010 at 16:45 | In ALEX Toys, Reviews | Leave a CommentTags: ALEX Toys, Family
Carrie at 5 Minutes for Books, a 5 Minutes for Mom website, reviewed our Undercover Super Sleuth Kit.
“This kit
is amazing! It’s perfect for one child, or for multiple children to share together. There are two code wheels so that the ah hem, children, can write and crack their own codes.
There are code files, teaching children how to hide secret messages with the use of a telephone, using a scytale, Morse code, a code grid, etc., etc., etc. They can learn how to write and make use of over 10 different codes to communicate something like, ‘The neighbor forgot to take out his trash last week. What do you think that means?’ The possibilities are endless!”
We’re so glad she enjoyed it! Read the rest of Carrie’s review and enter to win a kit of your own here: http://www.5minutesforbooks.com/2796/undercover-super-sleuthdetective-kit/

Kate from Simple Mom reviews just posted a great blog about the ALEX Toys Ready, Set, School. Read what this mom has to say:
This is one of those must-have items a mom needs in her arsenal. Seriously, this box contains hours upon hours of activities to keep your young ones entertained. Holidays at relatives’ houses who don’t have kids, anyone?? This box will have your child enthralled with the bright colors, fun illustrations, stickers, and more…and they just might learn something along the way! And when they get tired of one activity, they can just move onto the next to get their little brains charged up and imaginations soaring.
