At ToyDirectory® Inc. and TDmonthly Magazine® we believe that playing with high-quality toys helps children to develop compassion, creativity, and intellect that stay with them as they grow, contributing to a more peaceful world.

Our founder and current CEO, Bob Naimi, started the company in 1996. Since then, we have connected retailers with toys that are not only fun, but that also help to nurture children's musical, kinesthetic, logical, linguistic, spatial, and inter/intrapersonal sensibilities.

We believe that children who have the opportunity to engage with such stimulating toys grow to have a better understanding of themselves and their peers, and are better able to find creative solutions to their problems, rather than relying on aggression and violence to get their way.

With this in mind, as of 2004 we no longer allow toy guns to be featured on our site, preferring instead to showcase the toys that will help little ones learn cooperation, self reliance, and, of course, how to have fun!

ToyDirectory gives you access to a database of tens of thousands of toys, and helps connect toy buyers with information on the different products and services offered by toy manufacturers.

Looking to learn more about the toys that are not only enriching kids' lives, but are also flying off of retailers' shelves? Then head on over to TDmonthly Magazine, our entirely online magazine that focuses on best selling toys.

We hope you find what you're looking for, and remember — just like TDmonthly Magazine® and ToyDirectory® Inc., it's retailers and manufacturers like you who are "Improving the World Through Positive Play."

Here's what one of our 14,600+ registered retailer readers[?] had to say about our site:

Retailers aren't the only ones to use ToyDirectory® and TDmonthly Magazine®; toy manufacturers, both big and small, benefit, too:

"Two days after we went live on TDmonthly, we got a phone call from a distributor who has 37 points of distribution. She'd seen our game on ToyDirectory and asked for a sample to show her boss. We sent her a full-scale comp and she called back to say 'We're in ... can we get it early?' We've made four pre-Toy Fair sales so far with TDmonthly!" —Tara Murphy, founder, Elastic Earth
