When it comes to September 2018 toys, personalization and tech customization both seem to be major themes.
4D Chef is a highly innovative new technology that transforms cooking and food education with augmented and virtual reality. The mixed reality experiences include a variety of recipes that kids are able to learn during playtime. 4D Chef comes with a number of cooking utensils to get kids started and shows that bridging play and education is ideal for engaging young children.
I See Me! is a company allowing parents to customize paperback books for their child. In particular, 'Super Kid' is a customizable story that puts the child at the center of a superhero adventure. The unique innovation is great for children who need an extra push when it comes to loving reading.
