We had an amazing time in Kansas City, MO at the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) conference earlier this month! The vital role school counselors and educators play in guiding students through academic, emotional, and social challenges was on full display. Our team had inspiring conversations and left feeling strong about our company mission. Thinking Putty is more than just a fun fidget toy – it's a tool for managing stress, anxiety, creative blocks, and more. We thrilled to learn from school counselors how our products facilitate their important work. Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth and shared their insights. We’re excited to continue partnering with school counselors to help every student reach their full potential. Together, we can make a difference, one stretch of Thinking Putty at a time! 💪🧠✨ #CrazyAarons #ThinkingPutty #ASCA2024 #SchoolCounselors #Education #MentalHealth #StudentSupport

A week has flown by since the inaugural International Day of Play, and we're still buzzing with joy! Huge thanks to @LEGO_Group and @LEGO_Foundation for championing a day that's now officially honored by the @UnitedNations. While @AaronMuderick represented the Toy Association at the UN Headquarters, back home in Norristown, PA, The Shop was a hub of pure delight. From sidewalk chalk masterpieces and face painting to the ingeniously crafted works from our Crazy Creator, the day was a burst of creativity and joy. And a special shout-out to @FriosGourmetPops for cooling us down with their delectable frozen treats! A heartwarming thanks to the community—our local friends and families who came together to play. Let's keep the tradition alive and mark our calendars for June 11th each year. Remember what Crazy Aaron believes, "the world is a better place with play." #InternationalDayOfPlay #PlayfulCommunity #CelebratingPlay

I'm incredibly grateful to reflect on a busy weekend at Lincoln Financial Field with my team at Crazy Aaron Enterprises During the week leading up to the Eagles Autism Challenge, the Crazy Aaron's headquarters was a sea of green. The opportunity to sponsor such a significant cause filled so many with a sense of purpose and excitement. Our team designed and manufactured over 7000 tins of custom Thinking Putty, and prepared an interactive booth filled with games, activities, and prizes for participants after their run/walk/bike was finished. Watching the smiles on the faces of participants as they interacted with our booth was incredibly rewarding. I found myself reflecting on the importance of balance. Yes, we were there to work, to promote our brand and support a great cause, but we were also there to have fun, to connect with others, and to celebrate the spirit of community. As I look back on the weekend, I'm filled with a profound sense of gratitude for my team at Crazy Aaron's. As a lifelong Philadelphia Eagles fan, it was difficult at times to contain my excitement. Together, we showed that it's possible to merge work and pleasure in a way that not only benefits our business but also enriches the lives of those around us. And for that, I couldn't be prouder. Special thanks to Cathryn Antonacio for helping us make this happen! It’s amazing what can evolve from a few emails.

As we reflect on a quarter of a century in this dynamic industry, we couldn't be prouder of where we stand today. This year, we marked a special milestone, celebrating our 25th anniversary.

DKB describes these as 'small, fun, addictive and packed with more innovation than their size belies,'" Click to read the full Toy World magazine article: https://lnkd.in/e3n_st_s We are excited to expand our international footprint and celebrate the sale of our 200,000th tin with distribution partners like DKB Toys & Distribution!

(5:03) We hear from teachers and parents year round that Thinking Putty can be a handy stress-reliever during study sessions. It offers a unique way to take short breaks while staying engaged!
