19 BRAND SPANKING NEW SANTORO Santoro has announced the expansion of its multi-awardwinning Pop & Build range. Moving beyond the seasonal formats, the collection will now be stepping into exciting, nonoccasion-specific themes that can be enjoyed and displayed all year-round. Answering the calls of growing demand from retailers and customers alike, the Pop & Build range is evolving to deliver exactly what audiences have been waiting for: immersive builds with broader lifestyle appeal. Enter Solar System and Land of the Dinosaurs, two standout additions that introduce a fresh ‘pop and learn’ element. The solar system design shines with gold-foiled detailing, educational planetary insights woven throughout its structure, and independent moving components that allow the planets to revolve around the sun for a truly dynamic display. Meanwhile, Land of the Dinosaurs brings vibrant prehistoric scenes to life, with hidden facts placed across its construction and swinging interactive elements that invite exploration at every turn. The much-loved Pop & Build format remains at the heart of each set, made completely plastic-free and delivering all the satisfaction of a construction activity through beautifully engineered paper design. Ideal for family time, independent building, or even classroom settings, the range encourages hands-on creativity and a break away from digital screens. With back-to-back ‘gold medal’ wins at the 2024 and 2025 Independent Toy Awards, the collection continues to set the standard for creative, sustainable, and innovative design, with plenty more to come from this coveted range. www.santorus.com SEEDBALL The original seed ball company, Seedball, has expanded its range with two new products designed to make wildflower planting simple, attractive and accessible.
