Catalog 2018 Special selection games & toys for USA
2
Hi there! Play, move, learn… Children explore the world by playing with toys and games. Toys and games help children develop emotionally and physically. Children face different situations while playing games by making mistakes, using their creativity and working together to solve a problem. The lessons and skills they gain are useful throughout the rest of their lives. They say the childhood is the golden period of life… we are grateful to be a part of this period in a childs life with our products. We motivate and encourage children to start playing, moving and learning. There is no age limit for playing (psst…we still love to play with toys and games as well!) and our products are therefore meant for young and old, tall and short and for outdoor and indoor playing fun. We from BS Toys hope you will take a careful look at our catalog as carefully as we have developed, selected and produced our toys and games for the year 2018! /BuitenSpeel

We are taking care‌ not only for our own children, but also for those of others! That’s why we started supporting the Johan Cruyff Foundation in the beginning of 2017. The Johan Cruyff Foundation makes sure that children are getting more active from all over the world by moving and playing sports. The foundation offers every (disabled) child an opportunity to participate in sports. Team BS Toys is very proud of the Dutch legend Johan Cruijff, who past away in 2016, and his initiative for this foundation that has grown into an organization. Johan Cruijff played two seasons in the old North American Soccer League (1979-1980) for the Los Angeles Aztecs and the Washington Diplomats. Our mission matches the objectives of this non-profit organization and we are very proud to be a part of making sports and play available for every child worldwide.

We offer… In- and outdoor toys and games for all seasons and ages. Our toys and games are characterized by different elements ranging from educational, active, creative and original elements. We design our toys carefully and make sure that they are all visually attractive. Hold on, wait a moment…we offer more than just that! We are a young and energetic company that understands the importance of offering our partners and clients the service and information they need. We are thinkers and get things done!
Our product packaging
We like long-lasting products which can be played with for more than just one season. Long-lasting products need a strong and solid packaging! Our packaging is made of corrugated cardboard that can take a hit. But hey, let’s be honest…appearance does matter! Therefore, we pay attention to our visual identity as well. Each age category is marked with a different color. Most packages are provided with a handle, a window that shows a sneak preview of the product and clear photography. Not wanting to keep the product in its original packaging? Cotton bags are mostly included to easily store your toy!
Toy safety
We value safety for everyone and especially for the little ones. This is why we test our toys periodically to make sure our toys are safe to play with. Our toys are tested in a CPSC- approved laboratory and in accordance with the U.S toy safety standards. Our toys comply with the ASTM F963 safety standard.

Children from the age of 3 have a rich imagination and start exploring the world by asking many questions and by expressing themselves creatively. At this age, children develop socially and physically by jumping around instead of walking and by making new friends. They are getting more independent and are able to close doors, dress themselves and/or wash their own hands! In this time of their lives, children play the most. Our 3+ toys and games will help them explore the world by using their creativity and teach them how to play together with other children.
