International Toy Fair Gets Sneak Peek at Baby Abuelita DVD

Riding on the wave of rapid growth and popularity, Baby Abuelita Productions will be previewing the first in a series of animated DVDs for the Hispanic children’s market at the New York City International Toy Fair on February 16 - 21, 2008 in the Jacob Javits Center. The Baby Abuelita Family Fiesta DVD is the most recent installment of award- winning Baby Abuelita products that preserve Hispanic heritage by teaching children traditional songs, dances, folklore and language. The original Baby Abuelita collection featured two dolls: Abuelita Rosa, Abuelito Pancho, warm and cuddly grandparent dolls that sing traditional Spanish language lullabies and nursery rhymes.

The Baby Abuelita direct-to-home DVD follows Abuelita Rosa, Abuelito Pancho and their grandchildren through three 15 minute episodes plus special features designed to teach Hispanic culture through educational, entertaining stories and adventures that include music and dance.

Each episode contains one traditional Spanish language lullaby and one original song written exclusively for Baby Abuelita’s Family Fiesta video series by Latin Grammy Award winning artists Joel Someillan and George Noriega of Jollipop Entertainment.

“With Baby Abuelita distribution growing so rapidly, it quickly became clear just how great a demand there is for Hispanic-centered products,” says Carol Fenster, Baby Abuelita CEO. “It only makes sense for Baby Abuelita Productions to use every current medium we can to teach children about their culture and heritage. We have got dolls and books; DVDs are the next logical step to bring these characters to life. We hope the International Toy Fair will help us reach an even bigger audience.”

Since its launch in 2005, Baby Abuelita has more than tripled the size of its national distribution to over 3,000 stores and products are now available at Wal-Mart, Kmart, Target, Toys R Us, and Sam’s Club as well as www.babyabuelita.com/ . Multicultural initiatives at major retailers across the country have highlighted Baby Abuelita products in their holiday promotions, capturing the attention of Dany Garcia Johnson and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and leading to Baby Abuelita’s strong investment partnership with Garcia Johnson’s wealth management firm JDM Partners LLC. Both Johnsons are excited to utilize their media contacts and expertise to aide in the company’s continued growth and increasing brand equity.
