Last weekend was the Chicago Toy and Game Fair at Navy Pier. It was an exciting and inspirational experience to accompany a student participating in the Young Inventor Challenge. The entries were high quality and very impressive. The Young Inventor Challenge was sponsored by Lund and Company -- inventors and believers in the vital importance of play.
The Chicago Toy and Game Fair was well attended by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable public.
Commercial vendors played games, demonstrated games, and sold games direct to the public. Costumed characters roam the show floor, including characters from Star Wars, Spot, and Santa Claus.
This was a completely delightful experience! We got home Monday and have been in an ecstasy of invention ever since.

Thank you Annee for your glowing report.
We were thrilled to have Bruce Lund and his group take over the Young Inventor Challenge. He brought such energy and professionalism. We are also thankful to Hasbro, Inventor's Digest and Fundex for their sponsorships.
My Very Best,
