Fisher-Price educational toys: raising little geniuses!
The American company Fisher-Price from East Aurora (New York State) has been making toys for children and newborns since 1930. It is now part of Mattel, the most popular toy manufacturer in the world (known, for example, for its Hot Wheels and Barbie lines).
From the very beginning, Fisher-Price made educational toys. The company was founded by Herman Fisher, Irving Price, and Price's wife, illustrator and artist Margaret Price. The company's name is simply a combination of the names of its founders. The toys were made based on Margaret's sketches, and she drew inspiration from her children's books. One of Fisher-Price's first toys was “Doctor Doodle,” a funny duck that could be pulled along on a leash. Today, such a toy is worth several hundred thousand dollars among collectors.

FP Little People toy series
In 90 years, Fisher-Price has released a huge number of toys. The official Fisher store says there are more than 5 thousand models! But one of the most popular series throughout all these years remains the Little People line (“Little People”). These are thousands of plastic figurines, with parts large enough for small children to handle safely.
There are people, animals, cars, and various locations here (home, farm, school, garage, fire station). These are simple sets that leave children plenty of room for imagination. At the same time, they are very inexpensive: on the official Fisher website, you can buy them starting at $15 (950 rubles). Characters from popular cartoons — for example, from Disney and Pixar — are included. Right now, for example, a Frozen castle and a Toy Story 4 figure set are popular.
Healthy restful sleep is very important for a baby! During it, the child’s body grows actively, and also processes and absorbs information. Until the age of six, a daytime nap is mandatory. And to help a baby fall asleep, Fisher-Price makes special toys. With them, it’s easy to create a pleasant ritual: hug a favorite animal — and off to sleep!
These toys can later become a child’s very favorite things, so it’s important that they are high-quality and durable. The Fisher-Price online store has a whole line of them, called Baby Soothers. There you can choose the most suitable animal for your baby. There are two most popular models here:
1. Glow Seahorse. A seahorse that glows pleasantly in the dark. One of the most popular toys of all time on Amazon, it has here more than 3 thousand reviews! But on the official website it costs a little bit less, $13 instead of $16 (where exactly it ends up being more выгодно depends on how much you buy and what the shipping terms turn out to be).
Made of velour fabric, with a light press it glows softly, and the seahorse itself plays the sounds of ocean surf or a quiet lullaby. Then it gradually becomes quiet on its own, without disturbing the child. If the baby keeps moving the seahorse, it lulls them until they fall asleep. In total, the toy’s repertoire includes 8 lullabies and 2 surf melodies. The volume can be adjusted.
2. Sea Otter.
A slightly more expensive toy, and slightly larger in size. You can give it to a child from a very early age. It is available only on the official Fisher-Price website; other online stores, even Amazon, do not sell it. An awesome sea otter. Very soft, pleasant to hug. With 11 points that detect touch. Helps the baby develop all sensory organs: sight, hearing, touch. The otter even knows how to breathe, to naturally soothe the child with its presence. And, of course, this otter can be washed from time to time (just first remove the built-in module inside).
Fisher-Price Educational Toys USA
The company produces several toy series that help with coordination and contribute to children's brain development. All options can easily be found on the official Fisher-Price website or on Amazon.com. Popular lines include:
- View Master — stereoscopes that display three-dimensional photographs. Inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame. They develop imagination and allow a child to become interested in the world of high technology for the first time.
- Power Wheels — large cars for children from age one to 12 years. They run on batteries, and a child can sit in them and drive them. They introduce a child to the world of automobiles. They are very expensive, but are popular, including in Russia.
- Rock-a-Stack — for the very youngest: a plastic rod onto which rings must be placed. It was first released back in the 60s, and by now more than 40 million (!) of these toys have already been sold. In the USA, it's everywhere; you've probably seen this educational toy from America in some Hollywood movie or TV series.
- Rescue Heroes — heroes from ordinary life. Small figures of rescuers, climbers, firefighters, miners, police officers, and so on. With their own gadgets and their characteristic muscular build.
- Thomas & Friends — human-like trains and cars, as well as the locations characteristic of them for play (railway, depot, garage…). You have definitely seen Thomas the Tank Engine himself! In “Ant-Man” and dozens of other films. Or maybe in the children's animated series itself, where these characters originally came from.
The most popular educational toys from Fisher-Price USA
A few typical examples.
0-9 months:
The very youngest can only lie down and grab things so far, do they need toys? Of course they do! To develop! After all, on a mat you can do more than just lie down — Fisher-Price has a wonderful play mat with keys that produce different musical sounds — depending on where the baby presses. This helps develop motor functions, as well as begin to grasp the connections between cause (pressing) and effect (the sound that is made).
Price: from $50 on Amazon.
9 months — 3 years:
From about nine months, you can begin developing fine motor skills. This toy lets a child press buttons and keys, pull and switch different levers, and watch how the animals react to it. You can start learning how different animals differ from one another. And this toy is also convenient to store, and you can take it with you even on trips.
Price: $24 at Amazon.
From 3 to 8 years:
The Imaginext Systems line includes cool toys with many elements, and even places for battles and fights. A large selection of such Fisher-Price toys is available in the company’s online store, with prices starting from $16. Superheroes, castles, dragons, cartoon characters! A large selection for every taste, whatever your child may be interested in.
You will find inexpensive toys yourself, but we would like to tell you about a magnificent tyrannosaurus! Prehistoric, motorized, with sound effects, removable armor, and even a passenger. This prehistoric monster can fire two types of weapons, it has a cool helmet, extending mechanical arms, and a pilot cockpit. All in all, it turns out to be the coolest gift in the world.
Price: $167 at Amazon.
