Get ready for The Toy Book's inaugural #PulseOfPlayAwards: https://lnkd.in/gznGmKFc 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 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 a selection of nonprofit organizations to assist ongoing efforts to support kids and families across the U.S. Learn more and stay on the #PulseOfPlay! #toys #toyindustry #toynews #toycommunity #retail #specialtyretail #licensing #entertainment #merchandising #consumerproducts #awards

It's that time again, a quarterly celebration of our team and the sheer #ToyIndustry Media Domination™ of The Toy Book and The Toy Insider across North America. It's horn-tooting time, so toot-toot! In Q2, we racked up 7.9 Billion earned media impressions across 75 TV segments and a ton of print and digital appearances. It was an unusually big quarter (comps will be tough next year) because this crew ROCKED it hard. As always, a shout-out to our TV team including Laurie Schacht, Marissa Silva, Ali Mierzejewski, Nadia Velit, Charlene DeLoach, and Deborah Stallings Stumm; our support team, including Samantha Connell, Madison Patterson, Taylor Battle, and Stephanie Szulborski; and LKPR, Inc. — Linda Krebs, Elizabeth Tran, Maeve Selvaggi, Heather Mary Lacerra, and team! Beyond TV, digital, print, and total media domination, our live events are breaking records this year, with next week's Sweet Suite in NYC shaping up to be an absolute smash. We're hard at work on our the September #LAFallPreview issue of The Toy Book + The Toy Insider and The Pop Insider Holiday Gift Guides. They're in production now, so get in touch with Jackie Breyer, James Devin, Stephanie Infantino, or Thomas Stephen to book your space today! The toy industry needs newness and excitement and we are here to support those efforts and share the fun with the masses! #pulseofplay #weknowplay #fuelyourfandom #toys #toynews #toycommunity #retail #specialtyretail #licensing #entertainment #consumerproducts #publishing #media #toyfair #sweetsuite
