"These toys have been designed on the basis of the most accurate information available on the rapidly changing
interests and abilities of infants. When these toys are used as directed, most infants spend many hours studying and
enjoying them and respond with increased visual and tactile exploration. Though no long-term predictions can be made
from present data, our current testing program and related research indicate that significant growth landmarks, such
as the visual discovery of the hands and mastery of their use,

A series of educational toys scientifically designed
to match your baby's developing skills. Change the
toys as your infant grows-keep him interested and
actively entertained, both physically and mentally.
Playtentials emphasi.zes not what the parent 8ees. but
what
is
visible and appealing from baby's point of
view. Colorful, stimulating, absorbing toys give baby
relevant early experience through the fun of explor–
ing color, motion, touch, shape, and textures .
..
help guide him toward the discovery of himself and
his surroundings. Scientifically appropriate play
experience during the first months of a baby's life
can significantly affect the rate at which he acquires
skills which give
him
pleasure, and heighten his in·
terest
in
further explorations.
