Important Advisory:

We are now requiring companies to provide us with documentation that their products have been tested by an independent lab for phthalates and lead.
Please click here for submission requirements for new products. However, as we are not a lab, we will not be independently verifying those results. Also, with the exception of the 2008 Platinum Toy Awards, toys submitted for review prior to January 2008 were not tested for lead.

Instructions for submitting product to the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio for review.

Comes with a headphone (if you don’t want to hear the sound effects and a volume control). Additional cards are available: Color Arcade, SpongeBob, Color Recue heroes, and Barbie Fashion Show. Age: Preschool, Early School Years, Late School Years. Phone: 800-432-5437. Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award 2005

Also available in smaller travel model ($8). 3 & up. (800) 432-5437. (Works much better than the new Etch A Sketch Draw ’n’ Go (Ohio Art).

( Alex $$24.99$ ) If your child is at the stage where Hot Wheels, Bendos and Crayons are littering the backseat, then this portable toy box would go along way to staying more organized.

Outside pockets are great for cups, paperback books, and other must-have take alongs. Age: Preschool, Early School Years. Phone: 800-666-ALEX. Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Award 2005
