A note from our Top Dog:
SmartLab, producer of award-winning toys and books, proves it's fun to be smart! In just four years, SmartLab has created some of the most innovative products on the market within three distinct brands—SmartLab, SmartLab Challenge and ArtLab—that empower kids through an entertaining AND educational experience.
From the new Remote Control Rocket and You Explore It Human Body to the best-selling Voice Changer and Secret Formula Lab, each SmartLab science kit includes everything kids need to explore and understand the mysteries of science.
Packed with up to 1,000 questions, the SmartLab Challenge book series has an electronic game controller for 1 or 2 players so kids can challenge themselves and each other to hours of brain-building trivia fun, in titles such as Weird and Gross, Human Body and the teacher- and parent-approved Grades 1, 2, 3 and 4.
ArtLab is an original way for kids to channel their creative energy, as each kit comes with everything budding artists need to hone their craft, including unique tools and progressive techniques. Debut titles Clay Studio and Fashion Studio have already won numerous awards and received high praise from kids and adults alike.
Lauded for quality and ingenuity, SmartLab consistently earns top honors from Creative Child, Parents' Choice Foundation, Dr. Toy, NAPPA and Oppenheim Toy Portfolio. SmartLab is also a proud member of the Toy Industry Association (TIA), the American Specialty Toy Retailing Association (ASTRA), Neighbourhood Toy Stores of Canada (NETS) and Canadian Toy Association (CTA).
Our Mission:
We combine innovative, clever ideas with exceptional engineering to offer high quality toys and books that children will enjoy and parents and educators will value.
The Importance of Safety:
No issue is more important to us than the safety of our science and art-based products and of the kids who enjoy them. At SmartLab, we put our toys and art materials through an exhaustive protocol of testing to ensure they are safe for kids. Each component is subjected to rigorous safety testing at every phase of development and production and well before mass production begins.
We use independent testing labs to meet ASTM standards for child safety. These standards are generally considered the most thorough in the world, and are recognized by the toy industry and government agencies globally. While testing in the U.S. evolves, and may be different from state to state, SmartLab considers it mandatory to guarantee the safety of kids who use our products every day.
SmartLab is cognizant of the fact that you are concerned about the safety of toys you purchase for children. We are happy to answer any further questions that may arise during this uneasy time in the toy industry. We would like the opportunity to help you purchase SmartLab toys with confidence.
