<p>We are in the throws of production at our factory for the (fast approaching) holiday season. In fact, I will be there next week to review quality and (once again) update our team there on product safety. But more importantly&#8230; we&#8217;re about a month away from shipping the first Pinklets &#8211; Lilies and Friends sets to stores!</p>
<div></div>
<p><span style="font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;"></p>
<p align="left">“pinklets™” Lilies and Friends builds on the success of the pinklets Fairy Garden set and invites young girl builders to create their own stories in a magical new setting. The Lilies and Friends theme includes plastic rods, connectors, wheels and decorative EVA flowers, leaves and wings and plans to build friends and beautiful flowers. Built on the award-winning Superstructs building system, pinklets allows for endless play possibilities.</p>
