We seem to be seeing lots of idea submissions for devices for children and babies. So, it would be great to have a category for them.
But since adding a new category to the system would probably be complicated, perhaps Quirky could consider broadening one of the current categories.
Since "Toys" would still fit, and the kids devices would now have a home, I suggest that the "Toy" category be renamed "Children and Babies".
Thanks.

While we're at it, how about adding Bath products or expand to Kitchen and Bath.

Hey Clinton, it's a pleasure to meet you! You're a household name 'round these parts, but I haven't had the chance to handle one of your cases until now.
A number of other users have voiced their concerns about the current invention categories, and I definitely agree that they need to be expanded on, or at the very least changed, to better reflect the product genres that Quirky covers. A designation for baby/children's products, and a section specifically for bed and bath, are two great ideas. I'll make sure to bring them up when we're discussing user interface improvements (in fact, I've already recorded them in our handy-dandy customer feedback document)!
If you folks have any other ideas for how you'd like the Category system to be improved, feel free to share them here! I'll pass them along to see what we can implement during the next site update. -

Hey Baron - pleasure to meet you too. It's weird to think of being known around QHQ. I hope you all talk kindly of me - ha
I'm kinda hoping a switch from "Toys" to "Children/Babies" can be a quick fix, since the change is pretty shallow (toys still fit, all previous category data is still valid...it's just a name change), and it doesn't require adding a new category. -
