MindWare is an award-winning creator and manufacturer of Brainy Toys for Kids of All Ages. Our diverse product line includes games, puzzles, brainteasers, arts and crafts activities, mysteries, mazes 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 games, toys and books have received many prestigious awards including Mensa Select, Major Fun, Parents' Choice, NAGC - Parenting for High Potential, Creative Child Magazine and the iParenting Media Awards.
