Q-BA-MAZE INC. TO EXHIBIT AT THE NEW YORK INTERNATIONAL TOY FAIR, FEBRUARY 15-18

Q-BA-MAZE Inc., makers of the award-winning modular marble maze Q-BA-MAZE, announces it will unveil a rapidly expanding library of user-generated construction plans at International Toy Fair in New York’s Javits Center Feb 15-18, 2009.

Named “Most Ingenious Product” by I.D. Magazine,“Off The Charts” by National Parenting Center and “Top Ten Toy” by NYMetroParent Magazines and awarded as a “Best New Product” at the Tokyo Gift Fair, Q-BA-MAZE is a combination of two great play patterns -- construction toy and marble maze. It is an open-ended creative toy for building dinosaurs, butterflies, robots, fish, towers and more -- each of which is a working marble run. Q-BA-MAZE is a modular system simple enough for a five-year-old to enjoy successful building and open-ended enough to engage the complex, creative thinking of an adult.

Now, with the launch of its online plans library, Q-BA-MAZE offers users an ever-growing resource of new designs to build. More advanced users will also have access to Q-BA-DRAW for virtual drawing, saving, and uploading of their favorite designs to the Q-BA-MAZE website for sharing with others.

“It’s often said that play prepares children for adulthood,” explains Andrew Comfort, founder of Q-BA-MAZE. “Q-BA-DRAW is a positive example of virtual play in which the computer directly assists the hands-on design and build process. Parents can be happy that, rather than blowing things up on the computer, their kids are learning to build and share their creative ideas.” Q-BA-DRAW is the convergence of traditional construction toy play and computer play for virtual drawing and saving of Q-BA-MAZE designs.
