MOOV is a highly commended award winner in the construction category for Right Start Best Toy Awards 2008.
These annual toy awards are a hallmark of excellence. Hundreds of toys, books and software products are entered and put through a stringent testing process to ensure that they offer children the highest quality.
The awards are judged by parents and children. Toys are sent to different parents who then encourage their kids to play with them. Parents then observe their kids’ reactions to the toys and will also judge the toys themselves.
BERG Toys mission statement is to encourage as many children as possible to be involved in creative and active play together by creating durable toys. That’s why BERG Toys is very proud to have received this Best Toy commendation.

And all that is possible using just the hands, and no tools. So the specialists in outdoor toys are now offering an extraordinary plaything, with unlimited variations.

With the return of these vehicles, BERG Toys are not only resurrecting the childhood legend but also heralding a new era of play. Because true to the maxim of “Make it – Move it” children face a new challenge: before they can race all over the place in one of the four racers, they have to build it. Read the rest of this entry »
