New line of interactive, plush bears to be unveiled at Toy Fair 2009
NEW YORK, Feb. 10, 2009 – Burgess Products, a manufacturer of toys that encourage a child’s imagination to soar, will introduce its flagship product line, The Glowberry Bears, at the American International Toy Fair in New York beginning on February 15. The Glowberry Bears are interactive, plush bears that delight young children by glowing, giggling and even talking. The line consists of five bears, each with its own distinct personality, strengths, challenges and quirky behaviors, all hailing from a vibrant paradise called Snooky Island.
With a long history in the entertainment business and as a toy inventor, President Robert Burgess is thrilled to finally be launching his own toy line, and believes it will be the first of many products that will keep young children intrigued and entertained for years to come.
“Besides just being cute, cuddly and comforting, The Glowberry Bears possess a very unique back-story that is sure to pique the interest of young children,” said Burgess. “Snooky Island, the home of the bears, is the kind of place every child wants to go, with flowing waterfalls, blossoming plants, yummy treats, houses in every color of the rainbow, and mysterious but friendly creatures lurking around every corner. Besides the intrigue, children are sure to be attracted to The Glowberry Bears because they possess qualities that they can easily identify with, such as being shy, a bookworm or a bit more sensitive than the other bears.”
“In these current economic times, value is key and people want to get the most for their money,” said Vice President Cynthia Burgess. “That is why these bears will be a welcome addition to any small child’s toy collection. They provide entertainment during the day, comfort at night and the mystique of coming from the kind of far-away land that children dream about when they drift off to sleep.”
The Glowberry Bears will be on display at Booth #4875 during the American International Toy Fair 2009, taking place February 15-18 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City.
