Best Toys

When you are the parent of a baby, you need toys that entertain consistently, keep your baby’s attention, and are versatile enough to use in a number of different ways.  The Baby Einstein Shape Set does exactly this.  With these five colorful toys, your baby can explore colors, shapes, textures, and sounds, build motor skills, develop auditory and visual skills, learn cause and effect relationships, and have a great time doing it.

The Baby Einstein Shape Set comes with five soft shapes, each of which is unique and offers your baby different sights, sounds, and textures.  The oval shaped balloon has ribbons extending from it, which when pulled, make the shape jiggle.  The triangle features an adorable frog who ribbits when his bungee leg is pulled.  A squeaky yellow sun adorns the circle, and the bright star shape is easy to spot.  There is also a square shape that features a shutter noise when squeezed.  With a slot for a picture on the other side, your child can pretend to take his own photos. Each shape is dual sided (on the flip side of the star, for instance, is a starfish) to provide even more visual imagery and fun.  Each shape comes with a linking ring featuring a Baby Einstein animal: you can use these to attach the shapes to activity gyms, car seats, diaper bag straps, strollers, or even let your baby play with them on their own (they make great teethers).  You also get a baby safe mirror.  Babies love to explore their own faces, and this is sure to be one of your baby’s favorite parts of the set.

Baby Einstein toys are known for excellence, high quality, and learning, and the Baby Einstein Shape Set was named a Dr. Toy Smart Play/Smart Toy Product of Excellence in 2006.  In addition to learning about colors, shapes, sounds, and textures, your baby will get to explore language.  English, Spanish, and French shape names are gently introduced to your baby.  The Baby Einstein Shape Set allows your child to develop important skills on his own.  When he sees that the frog ribbits when he pulls his leg, for instance, he can see that his actions have reactions.  It may seem simple, but these skills are essential in your baby’s development. Most of all, though, your baby will experience hours of fun and excitement with these versatile toys.
