As Toyi, we try to make an assessment at the end of every year to see what we have achieved and what we learnt. This year, we wanted to create a document in which we could focus on the areas we want to improve, rather than preparing a report listing only the moments we are proud of. You will see the unforgettable moments of 2021 in the first part of this evaltuation document, and in the second part you will read about the development areas that emerged as a result of face-to-face interviews with different stakeholder groups, survey evaluations and observations.
We are super excited to announce that our eco-friendly creative building kit Toyi won the iF DESIGN AWARD 2021 in the discipline “Product”.

We are very honored to be invited to join China mainland’s first large scale social design themed exhibition and included as one of the 100 global real-life social design cases from 20 different countries.
Toyi just won the 2020 Parents’ Choice Gold Award. Parents’ Choice Foundation recognizes "the very best products for children of different ages and backgrounds.” The award, which was announced in May, is considered to be the most prestigious in the children's arena.
One of the greatest richnesses that play brings to human life is that it does not fit in a certain pattern and does not have to follow a predetermined route. We liberate ourselves by letting the materials in our hands and the possibilities of the ideas in our minds write stories endlessly and infinitely. So how much do adults allow children to be liberated through play?
We were in Nürenberg to meet our old business partners and extend the influence of Toyi to new countries between 29 January - 2 February. Now we're getting ready for a productive 2020 with our business partners.
