Brainstorm Ltd

Brainstorm is one of the UK’s leading suppliers of fun and educational toys, gadgets and gifts. We offer a range of ‘out-of-the-box’ innovations that appeal to the imagination, encourage interaction and promote lateral thinking. Established in 1995, the company has quickly grown a reputation for high quality, unique products which engage, excite and inspire. 

In 2002, Brainstorm purchased The Original Glowstar Company, the firm that brought the highly popular Glowstars to the nation. In 2007 the Glowstars brand was updated with a range of new products. The old favourites are all still there, but now they sit alongside our exciting Glow Kits, Glow Glitter Stars, Glow 3D, Cosmic Glow and Glow Morph. 

2011 saw the launch of our innovative Brainstorm Toys range, a collection of fun, interactive toys and games designed not only to entertain but also to inspire children to learn more about their environment. A year later we added more exciting new lines to bolster our already successful Brainstorm Toys brand.

Today we have a huge range of clever, imaginative toys, games, gifts and gadgets which are distributed all over the world, either from our UK warehouse or direct from China. Some of them are listed in the sections below. These represent just a small section of our entire range, so make sure you visit Brainstorm online to see what else we can offer.
