It’s about time someone finally wised up and got rid of the annoying “fancy” packaging that toys come in. You know, the packaging that leaves the adult who unwisely offers to open toys packages cuts bleeding and bruised. Amazon is starting to implement Frustration-Free Packaging. Now, this may be old news but it’s new to me and gives me a great reason to buy from Amazon from now on.
Here’s a sample of the new packaging next to the same toy in the traditional packaging
All I can say is: IT’S ABOUT TIME!
Amen! When my daughter was younger (3-4-5) I would pre-open things, carefully slitting tape and tabs and leaving just enough intact to keep the toy in the box. Now that she’s older I just make her wait.
I try to avoid Amazon because their prices can’t compare during the holiday sales, but that may have to become my new toy source, especially for my younger niece and nephew.
