Playskool's motto has always been that fun and learning should go hand in hand. Sounds like a crazy idea right? But it is possible to have fun while learning. Playskool offers tons of great toys for your baby or young child. Their toys are generally good for kids up to age seven. Always make sure you get toys that are age appropriate. A five year old might not appreciate a Walk 'n Ride as much as a baby learning to walk.
Types of Toys
Playskool makes toys that are intended for different learning purposes, and then of course, toys that are just meant for fun. If they learn something from these toys, than that's an added bonus. Let's take a closer look at each.
Edumacation Toys
*Motor skills are important for growing minds and bodies. Toys like the Walk 'n Ride, Musical Sit 'N Spin, and Mike the Mower are all toys to help your baby learn to walk and move about. These are good for teaching your child the graceful art of balance.
*Keep him active (and tucker him out!) with the Dance Cam. Plug it into your TV and the camera will project your child on the screen and allow him to bust a move.
*The Busy Ball Popper will teach your child's eyes to focus and learn eye tracking skills.
*Developing the mind is crucial at this age and Playskool has you covered with lots of toys to help your child on his way to "genius-hood." The Form Fitter and Block Spot teach spatial awareness and Busy Poppin' Pals can help with memory.
*Vivid imagination is something that often separates kids from adults. Cultivate your child's imagination with building blocks and Play-Doh. Tinkertoy is a construction set that is good for kids ages 3 and up. Let him build planes, windmills, cars, and more!
Just For Fun
Every once in awhile you should let your child enjoy life before he enters the confines of school.
*Remember how much fun Mr. Potato Head was? Well he's still fun and no child should be deprived of his awesomeness. Now there's even a Mrs. Potato Head and Spud Pets.
*I don't think anyone understands why kids love dinosaurs but we've all had our dinosaur phase. Indulge that phase with DinoRoars.
*Every little boy loves trucks and Tonka Trucks are another classic toy no child should be without.
*Weebles. Need I say more? Okay then, Weebles wobble but they don't fall down!
