MALIBU, Calif., Feb 22, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) –Tollytots(R), the infant and preschool division of leading U.S. toy company JAKKS Pacific (Nasdaq: JAKK), has signed a worldwide master toy license to manufacture, market and distribute a line of preschool and early learning toys for infants and toddlers based on the Little Angels.

The new Little Angels toy line from Tollytots will cover a broad range of categories including dolls and accessories, plush, preschool, role play, electronic learning toys, games and puzzles, educational and musical toys, building and construction toys, kids furniture, ride-ons and more, and is expected to launch in fall 2013.
“We are thrilled to partner with Tollytots, and trust their expertise to create a line of toys that further the educational and spiritual teachings of the Little Angels series and continue our commitment to creating faith-based, quality products for families,” said Roma Downey, creator and executive producer of Little Angels.
Darryl Wizenberg, President of Tollytots, adds, “We are looking forward to introducing children to the joys of learning and friendship with a comprehensive line of Little Angels products and helping to provide children with real practical skills while teaching core family values. Kids won’t even realize that they are learning essential skills when they are having so much fun.”
