Playtime, the largest world network of professional shows dedicated to the universes of children, junior and maternity, is making fun and games the focus of its 11th edition.

Date: 28th-30th January, 2012
Time: Saturday and Sunday, 9.30 - 18.30 and Monday 9.30 – 17.00

Like a sporting hotline, the theme of fun and games will come in many forms – giving rhythm to events, animations, workshops, “trend spaces”, - all produced by artists.

The Exhibitors - The New Arrivals
For the 2012-2013 autumn/winter season Playtime's Childcare section will be enlarged by welcoming an ever greater selection of the best up-to-date international brands: bugaboo / bloom baby / babyzen / ergo baby / hamac / kaiser / babylonia / lässig / sterntaler / aden & anais / stokke

The great majority of exhibitors come back season after season offering buyers their latest collections, and their numbers are increasing along with the size of the show.
