Over the past few years, The Toy Book has honored innovative products and emerging technologies in its STEM & Innovation Issue. Now, we’re repositioning the content as The Toy Book, Vol. 40, No. 7 evolves into The International Innovation Issue!
Set for release in December with bonus distribution in print at Spielwarenmesse in Nuremberg, Germany, this issue — cover-dated “January 2025” — will shine the spotlight on innovative products across multiple categories, including STEM, MESH, digital/phygital play, sustainability, and more.
With that in mind, the call for submissions is officially open and the clock is ticking to get in on the action! This free editorial opportunity has a firm deadline for consideration: November 7, 2024. Please note that no extensions will be granted for this issue.
