Fisher Price Dinosaur
The Fisher-Price Poppity Pop Musical Dino comes with 6 colorful balls that pop about in the Dino’s back, roll along his tail or out of his mouth, all accompanied to eight fun musical tunes and a host of silly sounds. But it’s not just because this top toy is quite amusing that we like it, it’s the fact that it provides several different ways to help develop your baby’s skills.
Firstly, learning to grasp and then place the balls into the Dino will help improve both your baby’s eye-hand coordination and his fine motor skills; secondly, baby will learn about cause and effect when he discovers that spinning the roller on the front of the Dino starts the music and the popping action; and thirdly, as the balls roll out of Dino’s mouth onto the floor, you can encourage your baby to go fetch them, helping him improve gross motor skills such as crawling.
Please note that the Fisher-Price Go Baby Go! Poppity Pop Musical Dino is really best for babies aged 6+ months who are able to sit up next to the toy unassisted. The toy would also be suitable for toddlers aged up to 3 years.
Anything that combines fun and learning is always a winner! The only minor complaint we’ve got about this toy is that if your baby just loves this toy – as we expect he will – then you will have to get used to listening to the silly tunes all day long! We’ve added the Fisher Price Go Baby Go dinosaur to our top 2011 Christmas Toys list.
