TFNY: Learning Resources Celebrates 25 Years of Its Iconic Cash Register with Cash Grab Giveaway

Learning Resources is rolling into Toy Fair New York to celebrate the 25th anniversary of its iconic toy cash register by giving away cold, hard cash.

On Saturday, February 22 from 1 p.m to 4 p.m., attendees can stop by booth No. 765 for a chance to win from a Pretend & Play Calculator Cash Register filled with more than $2,500 in cash and prizes. The company says that everyone is welcome, including Toy Fair attendees, buyers, analysts, influencers, industry VIPs, and members of the media.

Each participant will have a shot at winning by stepping up to the cash register and pulling the top bill for a chance to win cash or a Learning Resources gift card. The company will match the prize value with a donation to the Kids in Need Foundation.

For 25 years and counting, the toy cash register has helped prepare preschoolers for lessons in financial literacy.

Learning Resources will showcase its full range of products in booth No. 765 at Toy Fair New York, taking place from Feb. 22-25 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.
