ToyDirectory Product ID#: 22778

This dough can be mixed, molded, baked and eaten. Yummy Dough feels like regular modeling clay, but kids can eat it as they form designs and creations, and then bake it into an edible cookie. "This modeling clay has molding properties and can be eaten. Regular cookie dough cannot be molded into detailed creations, and clay is not edible and does not taste good. Yummy dough combines the best of both worlds," Tracey McIlwaine, account manager for PlaSmart Inc., told TDmonthly. Launch date: May 2009. 3/12/2009 [Add to my Inquiry Basket][?]

Multi-award-winning I-Gami keeps hands busy and minds inspired with challenging kits, designs and original creations. Inspired by traditional Japanese origami, I-Gami encourages imagination and creative play through construction with distinctive plastic pieces that bend, fold and snap together — bringing the time-honored art of paper folding to a whole new level!
— I-Gami sets reintroduce traditional Japanese origami with plastic pieces that bend and fold to create colorful three-dimensional structures. These agile properties and the concept of tackling paper art with a new medium have earned I-Gami a 2007 TDmonthly Innovations award.
— Reviewers in TDmonthly's Grade-School Roundtable enjoyed the creative and educational experience of building with I-Gami. Roundtable mom Gail Richardson said, “I will certainly look for it on the shelves as I can think of several of [my children's] friends — both boys and girls — who would like to play with this fun building and creating set." 10/2/2007 [Add to my Inquiry Basket][?]

ToyDirectory Product ID#: 3829

Made from state-of-the-art, high-quality ABS plastics, this kid-powered, durable ride-on vehicle comes in a variety of colors. Turning the steering wheel generates the force to move the vehicle forward. It has a sleek, aerodynamic design and moves quickly over smooth, flat surfaces. It was an Oppenheim and Dr. Toy Award winner for 2005. Tim Kimber, president and CEO of Plasmart, provided TDmonthly with his view of what separated PlasmaCars from other ride-ons: “There is no competition. There is nothing like it out there. It’s fun for everyone — kids and adults alike. Everyone understands how to use it. It’s pretty simple.”
— “Plasma Cars – we sell out as soon as they come in because we have a waiting list for them,” Andrea Truso, a longtime salesperson at World of Mirth in Richmond, Va., told TDmonthly in early 2008.
— Over 28 percent of 45 retailers who spoke with TDmonthly in early 2008 shared that this item was their best-selling ride-on toy. When asked about their overall best-selling toy, three of 66 retailers named PlasmaCar in May 2008, four of 66 mentioned it in July 2008, and two of 63 mentioned it in September 2008. Three of 32 retailers said in October 2008 they expect it to be a top holiday seller.
— This top-seller in specialty stores earned a TDmonthly Top Toy 2007 award for its distinctive aerodynamic design and ease-of-use that translates into lots of fun in and out of stores. TDmonthly believes it has the potential to become a classic due to its fresh, contemporary appeal and application in a child’s formative years. And adults like riding it, too! 6/28/2005 [Add to my Inquiry Basket][?]
