UNSPSC 60140000: Toys and games

UNSPSC 60140000 Toys and games (Family) encompasses educational and recreational items that state and local governments procure for institutional settings—primarily school districts, early-learning centers, correctional facilities, libraries, and parks departments. The scope ranges from basic classroom supplies like games, cards, and chess sets to comprehensive Montessori materials catalogs, video game collections for library circulation, and promotional educational items for public safety outreach. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers treating this code as a source for both low-cost bulk supplies (playing cards, dominoes, promotional pencils) and curated instructional resources (Montessori classroom packages, age-specific learning kits). Issuing bodies span school districts of all sizes, county sheriffs' offices, municipal library and recreation departments, health agencies, and regional purchasing cooperatives serving multiple jurisdictions.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, California, Delaware, and Florida. The County of Orange (California) Sheriff-Coroner issued an IFB in June 2026 for indoor gaming supplies—dominoes, poker cards, chess pieces, and card games for a correctional facility, with delivery within seven working days and a three-year initial contract term. The City of Fort Worth posted an RFP in April 2026 for video games and related services across multiple console platforms for library and park-recreation use, seeking 30 percent small business participation. Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida) released dual solicitations in February and April 2026 for Montessori classroom materials via catalog bid and line-item quote mechanisms. The City of Philadelphia issued a micro-purchase requirements contract in May 2026 for games with a $43,000 annual value ceiling. Caesar Rodney School District (Delaware) solicited school supplies across all state LEAs in May 2026, with awards anticipated within 30 days of the June 25, 2026 bid deadline. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative (Texas) manages recurring instructional-resource catalog bids serving school districts across multiple states, with the most recent ICAT cycle showing estimated expenditures of $13.4 million and prior awards attracting 156 respondents per cycle.
