RE: The tariff classification of an activity kit from China
Dear Ms. Arciero:

The “Disney Princess Cinderella’s Activity World” activity set engages the user in different activities which include reading, drawing, coloring, painting, and decorating with the ink stamps and hundreds of sticker applications. The interactive storybooks and the accessory items in the activity set are designed to be used together and feature the Disney princess character, Cinderella. The set is geared for ages three and up. The activity kit will be classified as “goods put up in sets for retail sale” whose essential character is imparted by the two interactive storybooks which serve as the focal point for the reading, drawing, coloring and decorating activities.
