The Baby Show Celebrates Its Twentieth Year

MEDIA RELEASE JULY 2013
The Baby Show Celebrates Its Twentieth Year

Twenty years ago, New Zealand’s most successful and popular parenting exhibition was born. The Baby Show is in the mood to celebrate with a bumper display of the latest products, great show-only deals and plenty of free advice at the three-day event starting August 23rd at the ASB Showgrounds.

A new addition to The Baby Show is the LEGO® DUPLO® Brick Pit - an interactive play area to let kid’s imaginations come to life playing with the full LEGO DUPLO range, and giving mum and dad time to rest on the comfy couches.

Playing and having fun is how children learn and develop creativity, fine motor skills and social skills, as well as learning spatial awareness, numbers, colours and objects. LEGO DUPLO bricks are twice the size of ordinary LEGO bricks making them perfect for small hands and growing imaginations.

Partnering with The Baby Show in 2013 is a new and exciting opportunity for LEGO New Zealand.

“The LEGO Group is strongly committed to children’s development through play,” says NZ Country Manager Hugh Campbell. “The DUPLO brand is often children’s, and even parent’s, first experience with LEGO bricks, offering a range of educational toys to start the journey of imagination and construction building."

“We want to offer parents an area to relax while the little ones get some time during a busy day to play and build with the full LEGO DUPLO range in the Brick Pit."

There will also be entertainment from Sticky TV, Baby Loves Disco, Toddler Toes, Funky Feet, Sports4Tots, Storytime with Zappolina and fashion shows from Egg Maternity and Tiny Turtles, as well as the famous show-only specials.

The Baby Show gives parents and parents-to-be the chance to be tactile with products, discover new products, save money, find answers and all in the one place.
