The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
GoldieBlox started in 2012. Debbie Sterling founded it. They make construction toys for children. The founder engineered a spinning character. This doll turned a crank to build things. Girls had few engineering toys then. GoldieBlox changed that conversation. The brand grew quickly after that. Today they sell building sets and story books. Their toys reach children across North America. GoldieBlox appears in six thousand six hundred forty-nine tracked brands. They rank tenth in Baby, Kids & Toys. The company remains focused on engineering for young builders.
