Katie Camper

Last March my husband and I went to Georgia to spend a week with our family there. My son, his wife, and their three children also came, and stayed in the same hotel as we did. After about the first day, the children got restless and bored. They had nothing to do during our “down time” and had no toys to play with. I thought it would have been nice for the hotel to have something for them to do.

Imagine my surprise and delight to learn about a new program at  Hyatt Resorts. The Hyatt Resorts Toy Box toy-lending program is available free to hotel guests.  Upon checking in, guests receive a Toy Box book listing all 24 available toys from which they may choose.  Once the toys are returned, they are inspected, cleaned and repaired, as needed, so every child receives a toy or game in pristine condition.

Ravensburger Toys

Three toys from Ravensburger, a world leader in built to last toys, have been picked to be in the Hyatt Toy Box.Ravensburger, the first name in high-quality, beautifully-designed playthings, puzzles and board games, has earned the distinction of having the largest representation of toys among the 17 manufacturers featured in the inaugural program.  Powered by Toy Tips, a respected independent toy testing company, the new toy lending initiative includes Mix ‘n’ Fix Mike and Katie Camper’s Holiday Friends from WOW Toys, which are exclusively distributed by Ravensburger in the U.S., in the Toddler Toys category as well as Ravensburger’s own Jungle Jive in the Family Toys category.
