How Many Fisher-Price Learning Toys Can One Family Own?

I love toys, and before retirement, my husband and I owned a small private school servicing 75 children. During our years of teaching, the Fisher-Price Rock and Stack Toy was a favorite of our kids, students, and teachers. This is usually a toy a child has during the early years of development. However, in our school, we not only used it in traditional ways but also found it helpful in teaching many concepts later in childhood.

If you have owned this toy, you may have seen how children play with it. Although it seems designed for babies, we used it to trace circles for art projects, reinforce the learning of colors, size relationships, and so many other learning activities. In our school, we always had 4 or 5 available to our teachers, who were experts at finding new uses for them.

Over the years, I have seen this toy redesigned for safety. It used to have a pointy stacking post with a new design. The rings have also gone through changes from hard plastic to soft, the colors have changed, and some even have moving parts inside a clear topped circle. Fisher-Price has a way of improving their toys' quality and safety factor. As an educator for over three decades, I have always loved their innovative designs and how a child can grow with toys and find new uses for them as they age. Fisher Price is a must-have toy for all kids. I know it is made to last and is often given to the next generation of children.

This toy keeps kids busy while they are learning. Small hands can move and manipulate the active toys for hours on end. Kids never seem to tire of this toy. Of course, eye-hand coordination improves with every action. Small motor skills are an essential part of development for children. These skills are needed to learn writing and reading as the child develops.

I especially like this toy for my students in preschool. The development that takes place while playing is incredible. This is perfect if you want your kids to experience a single game. Not only does it develop eye-hand coordination, but it also teaches him to play independently. In addition, this game creates opportunities to develop the skills needed for future learning.

Each year more Fisher Price toys are released to the marketplace. Near the end of the summer, you will begin to see new toys at your local store. It is the time of the year most stores are gearing up for Holiday sales.
