Playdate in a Box Brings Back Traditional, Inventive, Creative and Inspirational Play for Kids – Without Electronics
Playdate Boxes to be Showcased at Toy Fair 2018, Launch Pad Booth #4513

LOS ANGELES, Calif., February 5, 2018 – Remember a time when kids played together without electronics?

Playdate in a Box, created by Mommypreneur Letitia Fox, is a unique themed costume playdate box that promotes social interaction and encourages kids to put technology aside and play with their friends using their own creative imagination. 

“When my son Dante was three years old, I went looking for activities for him and his playmates. As a busy Mom, I searched for a product that would have interactive and imaginative activities for two kids. I couldn’t find anything original, so I came up with the idea of having an all-inclusive themed box for two players,” Fox said.

Playdate in a Box is designed for two players ages 3 and up. The idea is to promote social interaction and provide hours of fun.

“Social anxiety is real. Kids are becoming isolated because they are more dependent upon electronics and less dependent on human interaction,” Fox said. “I want to break the isolation and encourage children to use their own creative imagination.”

Currently there are 5 themed Playdate in a Box boxes:

  • The Superpower Girls
  • The Superpower Boys
  • Pirate Adventure
  • Rockstar Diva
  • Rockstar Dude

Two more boxes are planned for 2018: Dinosaur Diggers and Ballerina Besties. Each box contains a “secret scroll” that helps take kids through an imaginative adventure, as well as costumes, stickers and markers with which kids can customize their playtime experience.

“My dream is to inspire children to use their own creative imagination – with a little help from my product – and make a positive difference in their adult lives,” Fox said.

In 2017, Playdate in a Box recently received “The Good Toy Guide” Recommended endorsement http://www.fundamentallychildren.com/toy/playdate-in-a-box/.

Fox also taped and won "Steve Harvey's Funderdome" entrepreneur competition show for ABC and taped Entrepreneur Magazine's new show, "Elevator Pitch."

Playdate in a Box will be exhibiting at the New York Toy Fair at Booth 4513, February 17-20, 2018 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City. View the Playdate in a Box press kit here: http://toyfair.vporoom.com/ArtfulPlaydate.
