BEND, Ore., Oct. 16 OR-Qubits-Toy-Company
BEND, Ore., Oct. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Architect Mark Allan recently suffered
the loss of his job due to the economic downturn in the housing construction
market. Sending out hundreds of resumes did not help his situation, so along
with his job search he also spent the last of his savings to develop a
construction toy for children. His wife and kids encouraged him to use his
advanced 3D computer training and architectural software to develop the
prototype models and metal molds. From that point forward, it was just a
short step to full plastic production. The economy might be bad, but toys are
just as popular as ever.
Now he enjoys a brisk business, selling the toy online with big box
stores. This geometric Construction Toy of the Future -- Qubits(R), is a
dynamic new entry into the multi-million dollar construction-toy industry. It
is gaining popularity with school teachers, retailers and -- of course --
children all across the USA. A simple plastic toy that can be built up using
a unique patented modular geometry, it quickly captures the imagination of
children who might have visions of becoming architects, engineers, scientists
or even nanotech designers.
As a father and an architect, the inventor, Mr. Allan, realizes that math
and science can be intimidating mentally, "But if you can put something in the
hands of a child, they will be able to comprehend things better and have more
fun," he says. "Toys influence children; hopefully Qubits(R) will inspire
today's children to expand their horizons to include engineering, chemistry or
nanotechnology."
Qubits(R), pronounced Q - bits, stands for quantum bits, Mr. Allan said,
which are a unit of measurement in the realm of science that includes the
development of semiconductors used to make the technology of cell phones or
computers. Just as coal can become diamonds when its atoms are rearranged,
Mr. Allan says Qubits(R) help children understand the possibilities in
rearranging nature's building blocks. "I always want to associate Qubits(R)
with science," Mark said. "That's what makes our toy different from everybody
else's."
