Baby Einstein Toys For Toddler

This is the tale of two toy companies, the nation's number-one and number-two purveyors of playtime fun. The stock of one is on a roll, having outpaced both the overall market and its main competitor this year by a stunning margin. The stock of the other is laboring under last year's lead-paint-related recalls and has an aging marquee product, but it sells for a song. Advertisement - Article continues below Both companies just reported second-quarter results that surprised Wall Street analysts in a good way. So which company's stock, if either, should you buy? That's a tough call. The answer almost depends more on the type of investor you are than on each company's prospects. Investors who'd rather ride the momentum of a stock that has proven itself time and again might prefer country's second-largest toymaker, Hasbro (symbol HAS). Its shares, which closed at $40.41 on July 25, have nearly doubled since mid January. Hasbro is proving that when it comes to th...

A GRAN buying a present for a baby on Amazon was shocked to find a vibrator for sale on a children's toys page. Sheila Gage, 59, was looking for a birthday present for her 11-month-old granddaughter, Kiera. But her search for "In the Night Garden toys" returned a black 9.7in "hands free" sex toy. The £14.01 gadget was listed alongside children's books and other gifts. Sheila, from Northumberland, complained to Amazon five times since the find on June 13, but said nothing was done. She said: "It's not right that kids could just find it when they're searching for toys. "It was a shock to me, so it would be worse for them.

HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / June 27, 2020 / Babies deserve the best care we can give them; that's a point just about everyone can agree on. So why isn't the baby industry built with that in mind? Stories about lead or carcinogens in toys come out on a regular basis, and it's easy to wonder: Why are manufacturers building baby products with untested materials? Or materials that could hurt our children? Mushie Feigenson had the same question when she was pregnant with her second child. When she was hunting for baby products, she found that she was uncomfortable with much of the inventory available. Many products had harmful plastics and artificial things she was uncomfortable with. "I had plenty of time to check out baby products because I was stuck in bed with hyperemesis gravidarum for months," she says. "My illness basically kept me from doing anything else, so I got really familiar with all the offerings on the market. And I didn't like any of them....

Welcome back to Toy Aisle, io9's regular round up of the coolest toys and collectibles around the internet. This week: Spider-Gwen swings into the MAFEX line (and brings a friend with her), Hasbro turns to some Transformers who cannot transform, and yes, get ready to bop The Mandalorian's lil'est star. Check it out! Hasbro Transformers R.E.D.

Toy company Bop It! is releasing a rubber toy in the image of Baby Yoda. The adorable green infant from the Disney+ hit The Mandalorian is becoming available for purchase online and its appeal, like other Bob It! items, lies in its smooth, stretchy surface, which can be twisted and turned in any way the possessor desires. Though designed for stress relief and durability, Bop It! toys have become known, first and foremost, for their indestructibility. Because of this, the internet is marketing this Baby Yoda toy as "punchable" even though neither the company itself nor Disney, which owns Lucasfilm as well as the rights to the character, are doing so. Why would anyone feel the urge to punch the adorable little poster boy for this beloved series, you ask? Well, the answer is implicit in the question. When The Mandalorian first came out, it didn't take long for World's LONGEST Lightsaber

The infamous rocket-firing Boba Fett action figure prototype is up for auction…but it will cost you. With the possible exception of getting to own a living, breathing Baby Yoda, the most exciting Star Wars item for collectors is the rocket-firing Boba Fett. Why? Because the item was never commercially available. As explained in an episode of Netflix's The Toys That Made Us and spoken about with hushed reverence online and at fandom conventions for decades, a figure of the popular bounty hunter who made his debut in the otherwise regrettable Star Wars Holiday Special was announced for sale in 1978 with an incredible action feature — a red rocket that users could fire at other toys, siblings, pets, etc. Unfortunately, around the same time a four-year-old child died after asphyxiating following an accident involving a missile from one of Mattel's Battlestar Galactica Cylon Raider toys. The potential of being responsible for a similar accident combined with pu...

Mary Meyer Stuffed Toys has created a new line in collaboration with Kids2 called Baby Einstein First Discoveries. These toys focus on bringing all of baby's senses into playtime. The new line is following a trend toward active and imaginative toys that engage all of baby's senses and nurture mother-baby bonds by encouraging shared play. "Play is joy and play is comfort," said Linda Colson, VP of sales. "We live in complex times, and children are incredibly sensitive to stress. Now more than ever, the simple gift of joy and comfort has such meaning." The toys provide a new take on four of Baby Einstein's characters — Cal the Caterpillar, Neptune the Sea Turtle, Tinker the Tiger and Zen the Zebra. Crinkle teethers, blankets, activity balls and hand puppets all gi...

ALASKAN Bush People's Bear Brown is not being stopped from meeting his three-month-old son River, according to the tot's mom. The reality star's ex-girlfriend, Raiven, told a fan on Instagram that she's "not preventing" Bear from having contact with their baby, amid their public difficulties. She made the comment in a Q&A session on Monday, as relations between them appear to be thawing. Bear sent his ex a toy for their baby son, a few days ago, amid their custody battle. He sent the toy to Raiven Adams the mom of his son River and she posted his reaction to Instagram. The reality TV star sent River a plastic toddler play set, complete with buttons to play animals noises. Almost as big as the baby in size, Raiven politely captioned the photo saying River would be able to enjoy it when he got a bit older. She wrote: "The toy daddy sent me is a wee big 😂 but it's fun to look at 💙." Raiven posted photos of River staring at the ...

Brock Holt may no longer be on the Red Sox, but the Holts certainly remain one of Boston's favorite Major League Baseball families. What's not to love, considering Holt's performances, his family's philanthropy with the Jimmy Fund and adorable videos of his toddler son Griffin — also known as Griffy — living up to his nickname and hitting "big bombs" with his plastic toy baseball bat. And the Milwaukee Brewers utility man on Saturday revealed the potentially baseball-inspired name of the son he and his wife, Lakyn, are expecting. "Rippkin Penn. We love you dude and can't wait for you to be here!" Holt captioned an Instagram photo from their nursery, followed by the hashtag #Griff&Ripp. View this post on Instagram Rippkin Penn.

Getty/Twitter Donald Trump tweets out a fake meme video to show fake news is the enemy on June 18. <?xml encoding="utf-8" ??> President Donald Trump tweeted out a fake meme video on Thursday to take down the "fake news" media.

Seventy-eight percent of new parents constantly worry about exposing their babies to germs and other 'dirty' things, according to new research. A survey of 2,000 parents (with infants 0-6 months old) found 67% of respondents don't think they clean their infant's things as often as they should. Considering the average infant will drop six things in a single day, parents are constantly picking up dirty essentials that their infants are then putting in — or touching to — their mouths. Conducted by OnePoll in partnership with Philips Avent, the survey examined parents' worries and cleaning habits when it comes to their infants. The poll uncovered the average infant will throw or drop an item 168 times in a single month. As babies drop things like bottles and toys, 68% of the parents studied revealed they genuinely worry they are not cleaning things their little ones come in contact with as thoroughly as directed. And 76% are always worried about the cleanliness of the t...

Little one, oh little one. They love exploring, putting anything and everything they can get on their hands into their mouths—even unsavoury items. As parents, it is important to keep a close watch on them, for fear of choking and poisoning risks.

Edible Sensory Play: Sandpit Using Blended Cheerios  The TikTok video posted by the baby's mum, Elleanna, features her blending a container full of Cheerios—a popular breakfast cereal—into edible sand. Garnering over 2.5 million views as of writing, the mum's brilliant idea won the hearts of many.  Photo: screengrab from elleannachristine/TikTok The end product after blending, looks exactly like fine sand, with its beige-looking undertones.  The mum then proceeded to pour the edible 'sand' into a tray, and added a few beach-themed toys.  Photo: screengrab from elleannachristine/TikTok Baby Played, and Ate the San...

While Anderson Cooper's son Wyatt Morgan Cooper, unfortunately, never had the chance to meet his grandmother, he's sure to always have her by his side in his nursery, with a drawing she drew hanging on the wall. This week, Cooper gave an inside look into the almost 8-week old's nursery in a video for People. See the entire clip below. In the footage, the CNN anchorman welcomes us into his son's sanctuary and explains: "We wanted everything in the nursery to really be personal and to have a personal history." He introduces us to his favorite stuffed animals from childhood and admits: "I've been saving them for when I had a child — if I had a child." During the show-and-tell, his Snoopy toy makes an appearance and he says he used to grab him by his neck, apologizing in advance to his son about the area's lack of stuffing. We then learn that the television personality custom-tailored his brother's T-shirt for the stuffed dog beca...
