Innovative toys
It started with a clock in 1998. Created as a Christmas gift the clock design was so unique visitors suggested that they should be sold. So, they were. More were made and sold at Design and Art shops, followed by a bigger range of toys and retailers as each year passed.
A kits4kids Treehouse
The first 'big ticket' item, a kits4kids fort, was added in 2001. Made from hardwearing 9mm MDF, all the kits4kids simply slide together – no nails, no glue or tools are required. The kits are supplied as bare MDF with optional kits of specially selected Resene testpots available at the time of ordering to suit each of the kits4kids designs.
Quality toys that are interactive, innovative and educational, but most of all toys that kids love is what Eager Beaver promises to deliver. And with kits4kids that require no adult supervision either during construction or play, they are certainly delivering on their promise.
House: Resene Sorbus, Resene Linen, Resene Lima, Resene Picton Blue, Resene Cranberry, Resene Victoria.
Castle: Resene Stack, Resene Trout, Resene Lima, Resene Redwood, Resene Silver Chalice.
