Piercing Ken Thoughts: Having quickly perused the gift guide for Spring and Summer I can say that I am quite pleased with the findings. Those out there in the readership who have younger siblings or children or those just with that generation in their sphere are in good hands with the viewpoints from The Toy Insider. Their tagline is “We Know Play” and well, they actually do 🙂 Historically speaking, I met them way back in 2016 while doing PiercingMetal adventuring at the Toy Fair and since that time I’ve covered quite a few of their always awesome “Sweet Suite” and “Holiday of Play” events. If you’re interested in perusing those past narratives I’ll ask for you to click HERE as that will launch a new browser tab on the Ken Pierce Media that presents all of our cross-brand coverages in one sweet location. I hope you’ll check that out and to find the Gift Guide all you need to do is click the link to the Toy Insider website down below. See you next time around and please do comment in on what you think about it all. Ciao.
