Even my location in CT is too far for a Wednesday. Best of luck to Kate, though. As a parent of two and as an atheist, I would love to attend this. Even my location in CT is too far for a Wednesday.

She used them with our mini-Camp Quest at the AAI conference last year, and they were a big hit. @Ron: Kate has tested her toys with other groups before, including in public schools. I think she's interested in having atheist testers because her toys focus on introducing evolution to young children, which is something that a lot of nonreligious parents are really focused on and are looking for help with. Atheists and scientists are among her target audiences, but they are not the entire audience. Kate’s toys are awesome!

I don't necessarily see the connection between atheist and science toys. A rather odd selection of a test group. I don’t necessarily see the connection between atheist and science toys.
