Having been in education for over 36 years, I am very concerned about the quality of some of the toys, games, books, and CDs on the market today. When I bought a Marbleworks set at a garage sale in 2005, my grandson, then 5, had me go online as we were missing some pieces.  I went online to order a new Marbleworks Set and this is how my career with Discovery Toys began. I started reading about the opportunities available as an Educational Consultant.  In January of 2006 I joined.  I was planning to retire in 2007 or 2008 so I decided to sign up as a consultant and try it out as my retirement job.  I am a grandmother of an 11-year-old boy and 6-year-old girl.  They are my toy testers.  I am Barbara Joy Baker, an Educational Consultant with Discovery Toys.

I have one daughter who is married, and I have two precious grandchildren, Calvin, 11, and Allyson, 6.

I am a people person.  I love meeting and talking to people.  The favorite aspect of my job as an educational consult is working with parents to help them make educated decisions when purchasing toys, books, games, and CDs for their children.  We have products from ages 0-99.

• Imagine shopping for toys and not having to leave your home.
• Imagine getting the top quality toys for your children.
• Imagine being able to buy replacement pieces/parts.
• Imagine getting a FREE replacement if a product breaks.
• Imagine getting toys that have passed the most rigorous testing imaginable.
• Imagine buying from a company that has not had a mandatory recall in its entire 30+-year history.
• Imagine shopping for quality toys, games, books, and CDs where 75% of our products are under $20!
• Imagine shopping for toys that do not use batteries; 90% of our products are powered by the imagination!!!

Feel free to contact me with any questions you have: what toy to buy for this age child, I need a toy for my son’s friends birthday party this afternoon (I carry stock items) I may want to host a demonstration, I’m thinking of becoming an Educational Consultant with Discovery Toys but I want to talk to a consultant first. 

My husband died March 26, 2010 so my life now revolves around my daughter and grandchildren.  I have to stay busy and am looking forward to meeting new people with similar interests. I love to sew; now I’m in to quilting.  I’m just learning how to garden as that was my husband’s job and I don’t want to kill his plants.  I do all types of crafts with my grandkids and have them spend the night on weekends.  I love having girl’s night out, going to a movie or play.
