Grows with your Child
The sturdy, plastic-molded, brightly colored table sits flat on the floor for babies to play at while sitting. You can attach the table's legs to adjust it to accommodate toddlers' play while standing. And it offers plenty of activities at different levels of learning to keep your child entertained for these early developmental years. Your child will delight in spinning the maraca to hear a fun rendition of the ABC song; playing the colored piano keys to practice motor skills and learn about colors; moving the trombone's slide to count to 10; and sliding the cello to learn about up and down. Kids can tap on the colorful drum and learn about colors and primary shapes, too. Then, by flipping the pages of the "book" to go from the Learning Mode to the Music Mode, kids can hear more than 40 songs and melodies, including nursery rhymes and fun individual instrument sounds that will have them singing and dancing.

Plenty to Do, Lots to Learn
With all of these activities, your child will exercise his or her memory and problem-solving skills with lots of things to push, pull, turn, open, and close. And with the flip of a switch, the songs and games switch from English to Spanish, offering a great introduction to foreign-language learning. The Learn & Groove Musical Table requires some assembly and needs 3 AA batteries for operation. Batteries are not included.

Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Corn Popper Push Toy

Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Corn Popper Push Toy Review

Fisher-Price Brilliant Basics Corn Popper Push Toy Feature

• Balls strike plastic dome and create a fun Poppity-Pop sound and action
• Balls strike the inside of the plastic dome when Corn Popper is pushed along
• Sturdy design for beginning walkers
• Poppity-pop! Classic push toy fun
• Age range 1 to 5 years

This is probably the first toy that (no pun intended) pops into your mind when you hear the name Fisher-Price. Maybe this will jar your memory: the Push Toy Corn Popper has a long, blue handle (well, "long" if you're 3 years old), and rolls along on two brightly colored red/orange wheels while making great popping sounds as it bounces brightly colored balls inside a clear plastic bubble that's mounted above the wheels. So much for the technical specifications. There must be some unwritten law that every toddler has to have one of these. And with good reason. They're still fun! --Chris Livesay 12 months & up. Popping with colorful balls to entertain and encourage walking, as well as counting and visual tracking. Helps little ones learn numbers and counting skills. Push it along for sounds and lights, as the colorful balls pop inside the plastic dome. Requires 3 AA batteries (not included) for sounds and lights.

Hands-On Version of the Touchscreen Hit

The Angry Birds: Knock on Wood Game brings all the fun of the touchscreen app to a new, tactile playing field for two to four players. This game follows the same goals as the online version: launch the Angry Birds toward the egg-stealing pigs' wooden castles to destroy them and advance to the next level. With three Angry Birds, four pigs, a variety of "wooden" pieces, and a bird launcher, you can now bring the same action to your living room.

Build, Launch, and Destroy to Win

Play consists of drawing cards from any of four levels, building a structure on the card, and then knocking it down. To play, you draw a card--the higher the card the more points possible to earn. Give it to the next player to build that card's castle. Then, use the bird launcher to shoot it down with the birds indicated on the Mission card.

Go Crazy with Wild Cards

Our testers enjoyed the challenge of playing within the game's rules, including the ways the structures can be built and the birds that can be used during particular launches. They also had fun with the special fourth-level mission cards that allow for freestyle building for more creative play. They enjoyed experimenting with the distances from which they could shoot the birds toward castles. With so many possibilities for hands-on play, this game will keep you and your family and friends occupied for hours!

Tumbling Action Entertains Babies and Toddlers

The fun park includes features that will appeal to both babies and toddlers, keeping children between the ages of 6 and 36 months entertained. Children young and old will be fascinated by the Topzy Tumbler toys, which create a pleasing click-clack noise as they roll end-over-end.

Older children can engage in pretend play with the Topzy Tumblers as they roll down the yellow slide before being popped back up a series of steps. The noise created by the steps is loud, and one young tester disliked the loud popping noise. For other play options, the tumblers can also be placed into a slow-moving Ferris wheel.

Teaches Cause and Effect

Babies will learn cause and effect by batting at a roller that activates the Ferris wheel, lights, and music. Figuring out how to activate sounds and movement will also develop thinking skills and will encourage children to sit and reach. Additionally, the not-too-fast movement of the Topzy Tumblers helps develop eye tracking.

Compact Design is Easy to Assemble

The fun park packs a lot of action into a compact, sturdy, and visually appealing toy, making this an ideal choice for rooms where space is at a premium. A switch at the base of the Ferris wheel lets parents choose between two volume levels and lets them turn off all noise, lights, and movement if desired.

Made out of colorful plastic, the toy pieces snap easily into place and although an older child could disassemble the slide, there are no small parts which would pose a choking hazard. Easy for an adult to assemble in less than 10 minutes, the fun park comes with the three required C batteries conveniently pre-installed.
