Toysmith Previews 2019 Toy Fair Lineup

Toysmith is set to present more than 150 new products at Toy Fair New York this year. New house-brand items include Get Outside, GO!, Warrior’s Mark Axe Throwing, Chasing Fireflies, Bobbin’ Buddies inflatables, and Beetle & Bee Garden sets.

Warrior’s Mark Axe Throwing

Following the axe-throwing trend that grownups have fueled over the past few years, Warrior’s Mark features foam axes and an easy-to-fold, 26-inch target for indoor and outdoor play.

Chasing Fireflies

A new take on classic hide and seek, kids can search up and down for the gently flashing spark of their chubby fireflies with Chasing Fireflies. Suitable for outdoor or indoor play.

Bobbin’ Buddies

Toysmith’s new line of unique, exclusive inflatables feature custom art and whimsical creatures. For use on land or sea, Bobbin’ Buddies float on the water with a weighted base so they don’t tip over.

Beetle & Bee Garden

These high-functioning kid-versions of real tools, craft sets, and activities are designed to cultivate a love for gardening and the natural world. All Beetle & Bee Garden products by Toysmith that contain wood are FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and Rainforest Alliance certified. FSC certification supports the growth of responsible forestry practices, and is recognized by the Rainforest Alliance.

Toysmith can be found in booth #1665 at the Javits Center, Feb. 16-19.
