THREE SPRING 2013 TOY CONTESTS SMITTEN WITH HABA & LOCO LINGO GAME SERIES
Skaneateles, NY (May 22, 2013) -- With so many new toys coming to market each season you'd think it unlikely that toy judges with different criteria could each choose the same game to praise. Not if it's made by HABA. Spring 2013 judges from Parents' Choice Foundation Awards, Academics' Choice Awards and PAL Awards each pointed to HABA's cleverly designed three different Loco Lingo games -- Kindergarten, Fastgrasp and Building Site -- as the best of the best! Global toymaker extraordinaire HABA is that rare company that creates, every time, inspiring games, toys and play things.

PRETEND PLAY THE HABA WAY WITH PUPPETS, THEATRE, PLAY SETS, PRINCESS & FROG
Skaneateles, NY (January 17, 2013) -- When grownups peek into a room of young children in the midst of make-believe, they are reminded how remarkable and whimsical play time can be. Maybe it's because there are no rules. Kids just imitate what they see in “real life” or go rogue and use their emerging imaginations. As HABA toymakers know, role play is a way for children to act out situations they've read or heard. HABA's newest puppets, dolls, play sets and wondrous wooden theatre are influential ways to unleash the unexpected from the preschoolers in your world.

TABLE MANNERS ALERT: HABA GIVES KIDS PERMISSION TO PLAY WITH THEIR FOOD
Skaneateles, NY (January 16, 2013) – Some proper table manners -- napkins on the lap or elbows off the table -- are wise rules to be followed universally.

Pizzeria Allegro comes with a "brick" oven for sliding pizzas via a wooden paddle and the enchanting Green Market Lucky Carrots food stand includes "fresh" veggies, fruits, shopping lists and even coins to make play time a delicious experience.
