Toys R Us launches Toyologists toy testing initiative

The retailer is looking for 24 families to take on a three month 'Toy Testing adventure'.

Toys R Us is looking for kids and parents to test its toys as part of its new 'Toyologists' programme.

The retailer describes the would-be Toyologists
as “fantastic families who support Toys R Us by reveiewing our opular toys and sharing their thoughts, good and bad, about them through wonderful and imaginative means.”

There will be three main groups of Toylogists - children aged from zero to 36 months, between four and six years, and children aged seven and up.

People can apply to join the team at Toys R Us’ Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/toysrusuk.

As part of the application process families must review a toy, which can take any digital form such as videos, photos and drawings.

Deadline for applications is Thursday August 23rd. Toys R Us will select its Toyologists on Friday August 24th at 5.00pm.
