BEIJING( Associated Press) ！China has a growing middle class,a tradition of expecting education and 21 million new babies every year.Selling educational toys should be easy.

While China may be the world’s biggest toy maker,much of the best is exported.Department stores here do not have enough high quality toys.It is said the demand for educational toys is low. A US company,BabyCare,is trying to change that with a new way to sell toys in China. BabyCare works basically together with doctors in Beijing hospitals.People who join the company’s mother’s club get lectures and newsletters on baby and child development at no extra cost—if they agree to spend 18 dollars a month on the company’s educational toys and childcare books.
