Kids Preferred Announces its Lineup for Fall 2023: DC & Wizarding World

Kids Preferred, in partnership with Warner Bros Discovery Global Consumer Products, is rolling out an infant and toddler collection to gently introduce the magic of the DC Universe and Harry Potter to Generation Alpha. Zoomers to Boomers will be in awe of the cuddly and adorable plush, blankets, teethers and activity toys including My First Comic Book ($15) with a removable Batman and The Joker, peek-a-boo flaps and tactile ribbons.  Kids Preferred creates products for the crib and nursery with many products priced affordably at $10 and under. The caped crusaders and beloved wizards are transformed into items like soft blankies adorned with Hogwarts crests or adorable plush and even a jack-in-the-box that pops up when you least expect it with Batman. Kids can cuddle with 15” Harley Quinn plush or swaddle the red cape of 10” Superman. Kids Preferred adds little details like Superman’s black lock of hair over his forehead or Harry’s barely-there lightning bolt scar.
