I can’t believe I still haven’t shared my trip with the ABC Kids Expo with you. While I did take a bunch of photos while I was there many of the companies had products they don’t yet want released so I can’t share them with you. I can however tell you that there are a ton of great new products about to be released!
One thing I wasn’t prepared for was the size of it. It was HUGE. I was told if you walked by every booth once it was a total of 17 miles! I walked it several times both days I was there!
To give you an idea of the size of it this is a photo of 1/4 of it!This is only the front half of the first floor!
It was a great opportunity to meet so many of the companies I already work with. So often people we talk to regularly online we still get to interact with on blogs, facebook, twitter, and more. However with companies and PR not so much. Many companies such as Bebe au Lait have been with me from the start of my review blogging so it was awesome to finally get to meet the people behind the company.
Speaking of Bebe au Lait I wanted to show you what some of the booths looked like. Some companies had their products out in the open while other companies had their entire showcase hidden behind secret walls. Some of the areas I went into I had to put my camera away due to a no photography ban.
One of the other great things was being able to see all the product that I often look at online I got to see in person. I had been looking at the Guidecraft Doll Furniture online but seeing it in person made me want it and I don’t even have a girl!
So if you are a buyer looking to stock your store with the latest and great baby products you definitely should make sure to visit the ABC Kids Expo! My only recommendation is bring good shoes. The first day I was there I had to leave early my feet hurt so incredibly bad and I was so exhausted.
Isn’t it incredible? So.Much.To.See in so little time. I am so behind on my ABC posts – too much info to share! Do you think you’ll go again next year?
I have a little confession…I am a tad jealous…I would LOVE to go the ABC Baby Expo
That looks like a lot of walking, but I bet it’s worth it to see all the companies and products. How cool that you got to go.
