ParentsCanada at Sick Kids Hospital

Even though it’s the middle of summer, it’s toy testing time for us as we get our October issue Toy Guide ready. This year we decided to take the toys to Sick Kids Hospital to be tested. Children of all ages and their parents played with almost 100 different toys, gave us their feedback, and each left with one. Some toys will replenish the toy rooms at the hospital, too. Dealing with a sick child is stressful and the distraction proved to make for a great afternoon! Thanks to our friends at Sick Kids for helping us make the event such a success. Watch for our October issue to see which toys made the cut!
