NMCtoys.com was developed by parents of two small children in 2007. We made it our mission to provide quality toys that stimulate and challenge a child's mind.
There was much news regarding the quality and safety of toys produced in China during the summer of 2007. We walked through the toy department of big box retailers and could not find a toy produced outside of China. Gone were the
wooden blocks,
dolls and
wooden trains we played with as children. These toys were replaced with cheap plastic toys that had character ties to movies and cereals. We then turned to the internet and were frustrated by the lack of alternatives and lack of country of origin information. We experienced first hand the frustration and angst associated with taking away our child’s favorite toy that was recalled and we routinely threw away toys within a few days or weeks of purchase due to poor quality. These experiences led to the development of NMCtoys.com.
NONE of the toys found in NMCtoys.com are Made in China. When it comes to our own home we choose to keep Chinese Made Toys out of our childrens' hands. Many of the toys in our home wind up in our childrens' mouth and we did not want to gamble with their future.
Our quarterly earnings driven culture (increasingly obsessed with lower costs) encourages production in any country offering lax labor laws, lax environmental laws, lax intellectual property laws and lax tax laws. This low cost business approach may not foster the best quality manufacturing procedures. NMCtoys.com want to provide consumers with a place to find quality toys.
NMCtoys.com typically deals with smaller manufacturers and posts the country of origin for all toys. This empowers you to make an informed decision as a consumer. NMCtoys.com pledges that our toys will last....even if they don't have lights or make sounds. Many of our toys have received awards and meet or exceed USA safety standards. Some of our toys offer a lifetime guarantee from the manufacturer.
The toys of NMCtoys.com are designed to foster your child’s imagination, improve their motor skills and bolster their self-esteem. When our daughter was starting Pre-K, we were delighted to discover all the benefits she would receive through play. Who knew that playing with blocks helps a child’s math and reading skills?
NMCtoys.com is not the manufacturer of toys. We are a retailer of quality European and American Toys. We rely on our manufacturers for their diligence and adherence to Toy Safety Laws. Please always monitor your child's play and never leave a child alone with any toy.
Please enjoy your visit to our site and we welcome any feedback or questions you may have.
