This holiday season is a great time to introduce new learning toys to children ages one year and up who are now, at this age, really putting their motor skills and their expanding curiosity to the test on a new level. The Manhattan Toy Company has a couple of wonderful toys that fit both these criteria, plus much more.
A wonderful purchase for babies and toddlers is the Playful Dino by The Manhattan Toy Company. This is a toy full of busyness for little ones 12 months and up.
It is constructed of wood and finished with a safe, non-toxic water base which makes it easy to clean, just by wiping its surface down from time to time. It is perfect for honing baby’s motor skills with its colorful, eye-catching play surfaces, like bead runs, peg mazes, and much more. Playful Dino teaches children cause and effect while providing them with hours of fun. When your children play with this adorable dinosaur, you can just imagine the wheels turning inside their little heads as they learn new things, and then put them to practice over and over again. The dinosaur’s eyes can be flipped, going from wide open to closed, and there are connecting wheels that turn each other. The wheels are brightly colored in a swirling fashion that catches baby’s eye.
Playful Dino by The Manhattan Toy Company requires adult assembly but is relatively easy to put together. He has won numerous awards for creativity and motor skills development from different venues where toys are tested, certified, and approved.
Another toy that provides an exciting learning experience for little ones is the Treehouse Stack Up, also presented by The Manhattan Toy Company. This is a great toy for children who are a little bit older, and falls right into the learning curve for toddlers. Treehouse Stack Up is recommended for children 18 months and up, and it is certainly a perfect fit for them, as their curiosity is continuing to grow. If you are looking for more non-toxic stacking toys, you can check my recent post.
This is a toy that is exactly what the name says it is. It is a tree house with stackable pieces in a variety of shapes that can be fitted together in a couple of different ways. Parents can help their children stack the pieces to make either two separate small treehouses, or one tall treehouse. They will love the feel and look of the shapes, and they will be delighted with how they fit together, feeling a great sense of accomplishment with the completion of each level. Treehouse Stack Up comes with 12 separate pieces, all of which can be stacked in multiple ways, giving the children the feeling that they can always create something new. Like Playful Dino, Treehouse Stack Up is constructed of wood with a non-toxic water based finish making it easy to clean. An occasional wiping down is all that is needed.
Also the winner of several parent awards, Treehouse Stack Up is another outstanding choice for any parent to purchase as a holiday gift this year. Along with Playful Dino, what you will be providing for your little ones is not only enhanced playtime day after day, but also the opportunity for them to continue moving ahead in their learning process.
