Kinato
Auckland, April 3, 2002 --Kinato, winner of the Best Toy Award, Hong Kong Toy Design Competition, is available for the first time in New Zealand, just in time for the school holidays.
Kinato is just one of the many smart games available through Jayz International, a leading importer and distributor of exceptional educational resources and mentally stimulating games for New Zealand schools, educational institutions, teaching colleges, toy & game retailers and other specialist retailers.

Kinato helps develop IQ and EQ (emotional quotient) with a clever chain of 16 triangles that can be formed into hundreds of different patterns and designs. Kinato is a combination of a conventional puzzle and a tangram. The puzzle stimulates both the right and left side of the brain through creativity and application of geometrical maths.
"Kinato is one of the most challenging games I have ever played," says Jay Esser of Jayz International. "Its clever, colourful design made it a stand out at this year's international toy fairs. It is fascinating, entertaining and mentally stimulating."
