MindWare is an award-winning creator and manufacturer of Brainy Toys for Kids of All Ages. Our diverse product line includes educational games, brain teasers, creative play activities, building sets, coloring books and more! MindWare was founded by Jeanne Voigt in 1990 with a small retail store in the Uptown area of Minneapolis. From there, the company evolved into a direct mail order catalog and a wholesale division.

Over the years, MindWare has been dedicated to developing its own line of products that were initially offered exclusively in the MindWare catalog. In 2001, after countless requests from retail stores, MindWare started offering its line of proprietary products to retailers. Our commitment to developing new products for the specialty toy and education market is unwavering and MindWare is proud to collaborate with the most respected inventors, designers and toy specialists from around the world. MindWare products have won awards from prestigious institutions such as Spiel des Jahres, Mensa, Major Fun, Parents' Choice, Good Housekeeping, NAGC, NAPPA and Disney FamilyFun.
