Smart Toys and Games have scooped two award wins at the Independent Toy Awards: GOLD for SmartGames ‘Cats & Boxes’ in the Educational Games category and BRONZE for SmartMax ‘My First Build & Drive’ in the Construction category.
Now in its 16th year, the Independent Toy Awards enjoy unrivalled respect within the industry, thanks to being voted for by those at the sharpest end of the industry – the nation’s independent toy retailers. The awards scheme is uniquely positioned to host such awards due to its ever-growing network of over 900 independent toy retailers.
Gold in the educational games category for SmartGames ‘Cats & Boxes’.
Smart Toys and Games is thrilled to be recognised for two awards by this highly respected group of retailers and especially delighted to have been awarded gold in the educational games category for SmartGames ‘Cats & Boxes’. The popular compact game, which is suitable for ages 7 years +, challenges players to move the puzzle pieces one by one until all 5 of the furry friends are inside a box. Following the 60 challenges from easy to hard, the sequential puzzle game helps develop many cognitive skills, such as stimulating concentration, logical thinking, planning, problem-solving, and spatial insight.
Bronze in the Construction category, SmartMax ‘My First Build & Drive’
Scooping Bronze in the Construction category, SmartMax ‘My First Build & Drive’ is the latest ‘My First’ set to be launched by SmartMax. This bestselling range introduces young children between the ages of 1-5 to the world of magnetism, encouraging logical thinking, motor skills and imaginative play from the very beginning. The simple, yet effective design of the ‘My First’ sets enable children of all ages to engage with the product and allows them to build their own unique constructions in a multitude of ways. ‘My First Build & Drive’ is a 2-in-1 playset: Toddlers as young as 18 months can build & play and pre-schoolers from the age of 2-5 can enhance their skills as they try to build one of the constructions shown on the 24 picture challenge cards.
