BRIO SPARKS IMAGINATION
Brio of Sweden makes a wide range of colorful toys for
children from newborns to eight year olds. They are known
for high quality toys that stimulate child development.
Working with the idea that a child's imagination must be
the leading factor in play, Brio has succeeded in
creating toys that a child will be interested in for
years. Brio toys involve a child in doing, not just
observing.
Before we started our store, we traveled an
hour to purchase Brio track for our two year old. After
his bedtime, we got out the track collection and built
layouts on the family room carpet. We challenged each
other to build a layout using every piece, and having two
reversing loops. It was FUN. I knew then that other
families would want to have toys with the solid quality
and open-ended play philosophy of Brio toys.
Brio concentrates on classic designs, and then
adds new ones that are just right. Brio's new Richard
Scarry Busytown line of cars, buildings, and
characters are sure to delight every pre-schooler. See it
at http://www.somedayisle.com/toys/trains/brio/r-scarry.htm
And don't miss Brio's new Theodore Tugboat, bringing the
Big Harbor from the PBS television series to your Brio
layout. Theodore and friends are at http://www.somedayisle.com/toys/trains/brio/theodore.htm

TINKERING WITH A CLASSIC TOY
Wooden Sticks and knobs with holes... The TinkerToy name
has been associated with these colorful sticks for
generations. It's been a creative construction and motion
toy that children have loved since 1913. Changes
were made, and TinkerToys were manufactured from plastic
by Playschool beginning in 1992. Now the ownership of the
name is changing again and the future of products with
the TinkerToys name is uncertain. However, wooden sticks
and knobs made from the original dies of the historic toy
are here for today's kids. They are called
"Fiddlestix" and are the closest as any we've
seen to the original TinkerToys sets... entirely made of
wood, manufactured in the USA, and compatible with any
older set of TinkerToys from 1913 to the present. Build a
windmill! Build the biggest building you can! See

PUZZLING HEADS UPWARD
Once people thought that the world was flat, and then
creative minds proved it to be round. Once all puzzles
were flat, until Wrebbit,Inc's Paul Gallant came up with
Puzz-3D in 1991. Read about the very interesting history
of puzzles and how they developed over the ages at http://www.somedayisle.com/puzzles/articles/puzhist1.htm
And check out our great Puzz-3D collection at http://www.somedayisle.com/puzzles/3D.htm
Don't miss the mini Puzz-3d if you are a beginner or are
looking for a small gift. For those of you who are not
afraid to tackle a big project and have no fears of
commitment, take a look at New York New York (item
