Based on what you've said about what you want to do...
it's clearly a word-of-mouth type of business
People are not gonna grab a pamphlet and say: "Cool, let's go to a d...do testing party and hopefully I'll run into everybody from my church"

You should use a "sneaky" name that kind of implies what your business does, but it's not obvious, something such as "Toys for US" or "Great vibrations"

NOT obvious? Wow, I think my 12 year old would know what kind of party I was going to if I told him those names.

Cute! "Good Vibrations"! But I gotta agree with sapphire, my kids would catch on to that too quick, as well. "Toys FOR Us" is pretty darned cute! Hmmmmmmm.....

And it wouldn't just be a d..do testing party. There's plenty of legit products available.
