Your Chance to Help a Small Toy Company Succeed!

Here at Maukilo.com, we love quirky, unique and fun toys. That's why we're so excited about up-and-coming Toy company WOD Toys. "WOD" is a CrossFit term and stands for "Workout of the Day". These are items modeled after the real things and are toys children can use to mimic their parents and engage in pretend play. (There's that word "pretend" again - we just love it around here don't we?)

The toy business is huge and it's challenging to break into the market. Even more daunting is the cost of researching, developing, producing, testing, packaging, transporting, advertising, distributing, etc. WOD Toys wants to get their unique and fun products out to the masses and they're asking for your help!

Our Objective:

Setting the right example for kids is very important. The values set at an early age will ultimately determine the choices they make later on in life. I hope with these WOD toys (Work Out of the Day) those choices can lean towards a healthy one. 

With the childhood obesity rate tripling in the past 30 years, I think it's time those stats take a downward trend. Our fitness inspired toys is only part of solution. Active parents will equal active kids so whatever your fitness routine maybe, hopefully WOD toys will get both parents and kids moving towards a more active & healthy lifestyle. 

Current Progress

Recently we were featured on CNN Money, Komo 4 news, & numerous blogs and review sites. We now have a few distribution channels across the US as well as in Australia and have sold nearly 2,000 units. Our fan base is growing by the day and now nearing 4,000 Facebook fans.

Product Specifications

The toys are non weight bearing and are intended for role playing only. What weight they do have are comprised of the plastic & rubber materials. For more sizing, material, and weight specifications please click here to see our brochure.

How will the money be used and what you will get in return.

• We will proceed to the mass production stage and be able to leverage volume and pass on potential savings to our customers.
• Transition to retail boxes so that our products can finally be in retail stores.
• By helping you are then able to receive our toys at the mass production rates

Head on over to their IndieGoGo Fundraising page and donate. Depending on which level you choose, you will receive a set of corresponding WOD Toys. How cool is that!?

Even cooler is that in the middle of their promo video, we spotted 3 HABA games! See if you can spot them too! Then click on the link below the screen shot to see if you are correct.

Check out Caine's Arcade!

9 year old Caine Monroy, who built an elaborate cardboard arcade inside his dad’s used auto parts store, is about to have the best day of his life.

We ran across this feel-good story this weekend. It's a great example of how important it is to encourage pretend play. Children have so many thoughts and ideas going through their heads, providing them a way to create and solve problems independently will unlock their greatest potentials!

Check out the short film about Caine and learn about how you can donate to the foundation here!

It warms our hearts here at Maukilo to know that Caine and other children who will benefit from Caine's foundation will have the opportunity to go to college. We can't wait to see what Caine comes up with next!
