Roominate

A toy wowing parents and the toy industry has enjoyed instant success since launching in Australia and expected to be a must have this Christmas! The brainchild by two female Stanford Engineering students has won accolade of awards and tipped to sell out before Christmas.

Roominate is a toy line of customisable building systems that allow children to create original and unique structures from a dollhouse to a helicopter. The range is set to inspire more Australian girls to embrace Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (S.T.E.M.).

Creators, Alice Brooks and Bettina Chen conceived the toy range whilst studying their Master of Engineering degree at Stanford University and discovered after comparing stories on why they had pursued engineering, a shared childhood experience of being inspired by their childhood playtime and lacking building toys oriented for girls. 

The world's first wired dollhouse building toy range, encourages children to design, build and wire a variety of structures using motors, light circuits and modular furniture building pieces.
