New Booksy Collectible Toys Are Turning Heads and Pages

In a world dominated by screens, getting kids excited about reading is a challenge. PMI Kids’ World wants to change that. Its new line of miniature collectible toys, Booksy, is using the power of play to make reading engaging and exciting for kids again.  

Booksy is a unique collection that merges the thrill of collecting toys with the educational benefits of reading. Each miniature figure pops open to reveal a tiny, readable book that’s the perfect size for little hands. Each Booksy offers not just imaginative play, but an opportunity for young readers to grow their literacy skills, explore new stories, and express their creativity.

While the digital age has put infinite knowledge into everyone’s pockets, the constant temptation of a screen allows kids to abandon other activities. Instead of reading the latest novel or doing a craft, kids are scrolling. According to researchers, only 33% of United States fourth graders in 2022 could read proficiently. Booksy is bridging the gap between engaging play and intellectual growth. 

The core collection is based on PMI Kids World’s original characters: the Monster Tales. These quirky, adorable creatures are full of personality to inspire kids’ creativity. Each tiny book is illustrated and fully readable to introduce kids to the unique world of the monsters. The stories offer a screen-free and imaginative way to enjoy playing with their toys. As readers build their miniature library, they can display their collection in the Monster Tales bookcase. Get ready to stack those shelves!

No book is too big, no pup is too small! This November, familiar faces from popular kids’ television series Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and PAW Patrol will join the Booksy family. This new chapter in the Booksy story features daring pups Chase and Sky of PAW Patrol, as well as the heroes in a half-shell Raphael and Michelangelo. Each miniature Booksy of the character will come with a tiny story set in their respective universes. By including characters and stories that matter to kids like these, Booksy is making literacy more approachable and compelling to young kids than it ever was before.

Booksy PAW Patrol and Booksy Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will hit Walmart stores on Nov. 12, but you can add Booksy Monster Tales to your bookshelf at the link below!
