PlayMonster’s Big on Fun Booth
All weekend long, PlayMonster’s booth (#707) will feature tons of fun for families! Kids can stop by and design their very own Fuzzikins, have a total #MeltdownMoment and pose with the Furcorn from My Singing Monsters.
Meet the Young Inventors
When kids aren’t busy playing at PlayMonster’s booth, they can meet and talk with actual game and toy inventors. A schedule will be posted at the booth letting consumers know when they can stop by to see Tiggy, the inventor of Draw Into Crime™, and Edie, the inventor of Goo on My Shoe™. Tiggy and Edie have learned a lot through the process of creating a game. They can’t wait to meet everyone and share their experiences with all the other young inventors out there!
