Important Advisory:

We are now requiring companies to provide us with documentation that their products have been tested by an independent lab for phthalates and lead.
Please click here for submission requirements for new products. However, as we are not a lab, we will not be independently verifying those results. Also, with the exception of the 2008 Platinum Toy Awards, toys submitted for review prior to January 2008 were not tested for lead.

Instructions for submitting product to the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio for review.

Other Memorable Gifts

( Fashion Angels Enterprises $$15.99$ ) A treasure trove of glass and metal beads. There are enough supplies in this kit to make 24 bracelets and 12 rings. So, this will last for more than one rainy day or bring this out for a pleasing activity for a play date or sleep-over party. Sixes and sevens may want this, but it is a better choice for eights- the upper range of early school and well beyond. As with most of these kits you need to use a bit of clear nail polish to make the tip of the string stiffer. 8 & up. Age: Early School Years, Late School Years, Tweens. Phone: (800) 492-3237. Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Award 2003

( Klutz $$19.95$ ) Window art for the holidays has a new look! Using the black paint outline plus five other colors to fill in the spaces, kids trace designs and lift off beautiful stickers that adhere to windows, mirrors or other smooth surfaces. Also for the holidays, Kane's book of Candy Projects will turn ready made candies into artistic treats and games. 8 & up. Age: Early School Years, Late School Years. Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award 2003

( Creativity for Kids $$20$ ) Both boys and girls will like painting the tiles and using them to decorate the surface of a handsome wooden tray that is 7.5" by 11.5 " Smoothly finished in natural wood, with cut out handles, no two trays will be the same. Allows kids to select the designs and set the pieces in their own way. Comes with ceramic tiles in a variety of sizes, ceramic paints, brush and glue grout. Makes a nice gift to give to familiy or teacher. Or, give a tile to each member of the family to decorate and then combine for a gift that will become a family heirloom. This came too late for the 2003 book or it would have been included. 8 & up. Age: Early School Years, Late School Years. Phone: 800-311-8684. Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Award 2003
