Kinder Joy has released a space-themed toy collection that features astronauts, rocket ships, explorer rovers, and more.

“With the excitement and discovery of opening a delicious Kinder Joy, we hope the new space collection sparks the imagination of kids and parents, motivating them to play, learn and dream together,” said Miguel Zorrilla, vice president of marketing, Kinder Joy and seasonal. “Space exploration is more exciting than ever, and we are proud to partner with Alyssa Carson to help inspire kids and parents to explore the galaxy through the new Kinder Joy space toy collection.”
The brand developed a new content series in partnership with Carson that can be enjoyed on Kinder Joy’s Instagram channel. Each episode of the “Explore the Galaxy” series will feature Carson sharing her space-related experiences, fun facts about space exploration and how the new toy collection relates to her astronaut training.
