Oppenheimer Platinum Award
We’re excited to share the news that FyrFlyz has received a Platinum Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Award. The Oppenheim Toy Portfolio was founded in 1989 as the only independent consumer review of children’s media by child development experts Joanne Oppenheim and her daughter Stephanie Oppenheim. Their Oppenheim Toy Portfolio awards have become a benchmark of excellence with consumers, toy makers and the media.
