ABOUT US SEAL OF APPROVAL HOW TESTING WORKS/TESTING DATES SUBMIT PRODUCTS SUPPORT & ADVICE FAMILY TRAVEL REVIEW PRODUCT RECALLS CHILD PERSONALITY TEST COLLEGE CALCULATOR FIND KIDS BOOKS
The Leaps and Bounds catalogue remains one of our testers favorites for its easy to navigate pages, superb layout and clear descriptions of products. Being able to peruse a catalogue that is focused within a specific age range was appreciated by testers.
A Seal of Approval review involves a multi-step process conducted over an eight-week period.
Parents and children, experience and review submitted products and services either already released or coming to market.
Participants fill out questionnaires for each product or service they test. They score based on 13 levels of criteria including quality, appeal, design, price, packaging, directions, desirability, stimulation, replay factor, and more. Results are based on both statistical averaging and comments received by testers.
There are three testing periods each year:
| Report Period | Testing Begins | Submission Deadline | Testing Ends | Report Issued |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SPRING ’24 | February 15th | March 13th | April 19th | May 8th |
| FALL ’24 | June 1st | June 24th | July 31st | August 15th |
| HOLIDAY ’24 | September 1st | September 24th | October 31st | November 15th |
Each submission must be accompanied by a $295 product testing fee (we offer multiple submission discounts). This fee covers the cost of testing, nothing more. It is non-refundable and has no bearing on the result of the testing. Additionally, we require three samples of the product or access codes for online submissions.
