Doug—
Do you think WhirlyGoRound would be a good fit for Melissa and Doug?
I've reached out to you because it seems we share important values and purposes beyond mere monetary profit.
There's a good story in this product, as you'll see below. And it's insanely fun—the rare kind of toy kids will play with day in and day out. With the possibility that some children might not be able to get the hang of it, I offered 30-day returns but have had zero.
As a one-person company, I can't do it justice. What started out as a passion project has proven to require more digital marketing competence than I possess. WhirlyGoRound needs a team like yours. I experienced two medical setbacks that have stymied my progress (better now). I need to make a decision about restarting or find a successor.
I would be willing to have you take it over for the price of my inventory and a modest royalty if you see the value.
3 levels of value to the PhysActive fun of WhirlyGoRound, detailed below:
- PhysActive Fun Indoors
- More Fun Than Digital Distractions
- Therapeutic— Enhances Brain Development

THE FUNNEST TOY THEY NEVER FINISHED
Before the iconic Slip 'N Slide® took the world by storm, Spud and Rich were hard at work on an exhilarating contraption. Although not quite ready for the market, Chuck Knerr, its 5-year old test pilot, discovered it held tremendous potential for endless fun. Chuck recalls those days vividly, "I'll never forget the exhilaration of spinning. The Space Race was on and our patio was Cape Canaveral!"
Unfortunately, with Slip 'N Slide® sweeping the nation, Spud and Rich had their hands full. As a result, the project was set aside and eventually forgotten.
The thrills he experienced while testing the prototype left an indelible mark on his heart and fueled his passion to bring that exhilarating fun to children today. Chuck's unwavering dedication to creating a remarkable heirloom toy has transformed the once-unfinished idea into a reality that can be cherished by kids of all generations.
Etched in his memory forever, Chuck fondly recalls it as "the funnest toy they never finished!"

"FUNOMENAL"
Do you still cherish those unforgettable moments of childhood wonder? Remember the first time you threw a Frisbee® or ran barefoot across the lawn, to glide down a Slip 'N Slide®? How about the thrill of your very first Super Ball®? I share those same feelings of delight and awe, but with a unique twist - these incredible toys were brought home from the factory by my Dad!
Spud and Rich, the creative minds behind these toys, harnessed the extraordinary principles of physics, giving birth to what I proudly call "Funomenal Fun." Witness a Hula Hoop® defying gravity, or a Frisbee® gracefully gliding across the sky - these toys defied our expectations and ignited a sense of awe and excitement that words can scarcely capture.
Describing the intricate physics behind them pales in comparison to the sheer joy of streaking down a Slip 'N Slide®, watching a Super Ball® explode off the pavement into the sky, or spinning as fast and long as your heart desires.The essence of these toys lies in their Funomenal Fun factor - the ability to spark our imaginations and create lasting memories.
