8th Annual Young Inventor Challenge registration opens up.

As part of the Chicago Toy & Game Group's two upcoming conventions Spin Master is presenting the 8th annual Young Inventor Challenge.

The contest, which takes place November 22nd at Chicago’s Navy Pier, has been encouraging young inventors between the ages of 6 and 18 to present their original toy or game idea “science fair style” at Chicago Toy & Game Fair since 2007. 1st and 2nd place winners will be selected by a panel of toy and game industry experts, along with two fan favorites, in both junior and senior categories.

The contest is broken up into two age categories which generally fall in the 6-11 and 12-18 age ranges but can be adjusted to account for participant registration numbers and adjusted in order to make the competition as fair for participants as possible. Registration is currently open and closes on November 4th.

There is no fee to participate in the Young Inventor Challenge. Participants and their immediate families are invited to be our guests with complimentary admission to ChiTAG for the whole weekend!
