These large foam building blocks are a step up from the original wooden blocks you probably played with as a child. They are safe, waterproof and non-toxic.

The foam makes them a great texture for grabbing in little hands. And if your toddler falls on them they won’t hurt themselves. If the blocks fall down they won’t make a big crashing noise for you to worry about.

Construction toys like blocks help your child develop spatial awareness, coordination, and you can teach the names of the shapes and colors. Blocks help children develop problem solving skills.

This is not a large drum set. It is definitely toddler size. It is large enough for a toddler to hit the drums easily but small enough to still fit in a toy box.

Your toddler will learn to connect with the drums and come to realize they can control the sounds because each of the 3 different drums and the cymbal make a different sound.

Activity House

This is a classic activity play house for little hands. There are shapes to push through the roof and door, there is sound and everything it bright and colorful. There are 8 touch points that activate learning including numbers and counting, colors, shapes, opposites and lots more.

This activity house includes more than 50 sing along songs, words and phrases. It will accommodate your toddler through several stages because there are several learning levels included in this one toy. This makes it very good value.

The 3 stages of learning on this toy start with exploring at 9+ months where your child can open and close the door and receive feedback with simple words like “open” and “close”.

The next stage is to encourage. This is when your 12+ months toddler is asked to find certain colors and they are rewarded by the voice saying “You did it!”

The third stage is to explore. At around 18+ months your toddler is asked to explore the activity house with imaginative play along with Puppy (the toy character that comes with the house).

You can choose which level is suitable for your child by sliding a switch.

There’s a doorbell to push to develop fine motor skills and there’s plenty of eye-hand co-ordination with so many activities on the play house.

I’ve always found Fisher-Price to be very high quality. These toys are built for toddlers and they last a long time. In my experience it’s hard to find toys that live up to the standard set by Fisher-Price. I think you and your toddler will really like this Laugh and Learn Smart Stages Activity House.
