This year, the Children's Industry editorial staff also decided to present INNOVATION OF THE YEAR distinctions in the Toys and Children's Articles category. The first distinction went to the New pages game by Rebel Publishing House. The game combines reading books and playing together accompanied with board games in an interesting and unusual way. The Children's Products category distinction went to the Maxi-Cosi 360 Pro Family product from Dorel. The product shows that parenting and child care can be made even easier. The product conquered the market in the child seat segment.  

The gala ceremony was also an excellent opportunity to appreciate companies with unique anniversaries: TAKO Grzegorz Trylski, which celebrates 35 years on the market, and PLAYMOBIL Polska, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary.

We congratulate all the winners and award-winning companies and wish them many more years of success. You will be able to learn more about the companies' offers and activities until Friday, 23 February at the KIDS' Time Expo in Targi Kielce, which continues until Friday.
