Maya Toys introduced its Foodie Roos at the New York Toy Fair as a new line of scented toys that look and feel like food. In all, there are 20 food-themed characters to be collected, each of which is sold in a food-like container that can be opened to reveal a decorated home for the plush animal. While many collectible toys vary slightly in appearance only, these multi-sensory toys for kids ages five and up offer plenty of differences to discover with each new toy that they welcome home.
Some of the fun characters that kids will take delight in collecting include Kernel Ketty, Carmowl, Cookie Cub and rare finds like Raccoon Macaron and Sugarphant.
