Our vision is bigger than a toy company

We are committed to community initiatives that give back to families, in unexpected ways; to unlock a child’s heart, mind, and imagination.

A portion of all proceeds are donated to organizations which help spark creativity in kids

2019 Recipient: Knock Knock Children’s Museum – All Access Fund

2020 Recipient: Louisiana Art & Science Museum

The event will be located at Mestizo Louisiana Méxican Cuisine, 2323 S Acadian Thruway.

Registration is now closed but space is still available. Families can show up anytime between 1pm – 3pm

Our Initiatives

Community Partners are Key to Our Success

"Traditionally, CAA has partnered with mostly animal welfare related organizations and to partner with a toy company allowed CAA to explore a broader audience and focus on finding families for our many adoptable animals. The drive and passion Will demonstrated for our Lonely Hearts, dogs that have been at CAA the longest, was astounding and helped showcase these animals to members of our community." - Jillian Sergio, Executive Director Companion Animal Alliance
"We used the magnetic dough for Our Little Picasso’s class. They loved it!" - Robin McAndrew, Manager, BREC Arts Special Interests
"Our Museum guests were thrilled to have something so fun to take home as part of our Halloween Day in the Planetarium event! Tatro Toys helped make the day extra special at a time when everything is a little strange... and not in the spooky Halloween way!" - Frances Lee, Director of Communications, Louisiana Art & Science Museum
