Toy Addiction Ads

TRENDS Encourages Placing Phones Out of Reach For Prevention

These ads for Brazilian toy store TRENDS is very light-hearted and comical. I love the message of putting the phone way up high so that children will not be able to phone the store and attempt to order toys themselves.

The ads are very creative, although with kids today, they will probably make their ordering attempts online.

The ads were created by advertising agency Bronx, Curitiba, Brazil with creative direction by Alexandre Silveira and Keith Lauer, with copy written by Fábio Duarte.
