At midnight last Friday, the submission deadline for The Toy Book®’s inaugural Pulse of Play Awards™ expired, with a stellar field of nominations that exceeded expectations, blowing past our year one goal. However, a number of companies asked for more time gathering their submissions, with several citing the busy season overlapping the LA Fall Toy Previews.
With that in mind, the deadline has been extended through October 15, 2024! That’s right, if you missed the initial deadline, you now have a chance to participate in the Pulse of Play Awards. Please note that there will be no further extensions.

About The Pulse of Play Awards:
The Toy Book® has been on the Pulse of Play™ as the leading trade publication serving the North American toy industry since 1984. This year, to celebrate its 40th volume and the forthcoming 40th anniversary of its first print edition (released in February 1985), The Toy Book reveals plans for the inaugural Pulse of Play Awards™ — a celebration of the individuals, companies, and activations that shape the heartbeat of the toy industry and drive its pulse across toys, licensing, entertainment, and the overall business of play.
The inaugural Pulse of Play Awards features 21 categories celebrating the Purveyors of Play, Marketing Maestros, Creators & Innovators, and more.
The Pulse of Play Awards program is designed to be by the industry for the industry and backed by its leading media organization.
A portion of proceeds from the inaugural Pulse of Play Awards will benefit The Toy Foundation, Fill A Heart 4 Kids, and enCourage Kids Foundation, a trio of nonprofit organizations that support kids and families in need.
