We carry a couple of toy lines that are made in Italy. The Gymnic hop balls and Rody horse are fun, active toys. They are made of super sturdy non latex vinyl material and are easily inflated with a hand or foot pump. The balls come in several sizes to accommodate kids of all ages and we just got in the jumbo sized Rody . I'm pumping it up tomorrow so we can all see just how big it is. All the gymnic balls can support weight of up to 300 lbs, so you don't have to worry if the big kids sit on little Snooky's rody. 
Quercetti is our other Italian line of toys. We buy them through International Playthings so we don't have access to everything they make. Their bright orange boxes jump off the shelf and all their toys are in the category that inspire creativity and imagination. Illumino is reminiscent of the old "lite -bright" toy; just a little more high tech for today's kids. They also make the kaleidogears that combine the concepts of engineering and art. And last, but not least, we carry several of their marble run kits. These range from the simple to the technical to keep kids of all ages busy creating with gravity! There's something about boys and marble runs; I don't think it's something they ever outgrow. ( girls: don't feel left out, it's just that I have 2 boys and I'm speaking from their experience)
