Build Them Up^™

Learn and grow with toys that promote early childhood development.

Sensory

Hearing, seeing, touching. Through their senses, babies and toddlers first become aware of the world around them. In fact, their senses truly “light up” areas of their brains.

Gross Motor Skills

Huge physical milestones occur in the early years – stretching, walking, running. The ability to coordinate large muscles to reach those milestones – and more – gets refined as your child plays and grows.

Fine Motor Skills

From grasping a block to holding a pencil, developing control of small muscles helps lead to success in school and in life.

Thinking Skills

A mind that can imagine and ask questions is able to problem-solve, figure things out and make things happen; to remember what came before and, quite naturally, wonder what’s possible next.

Academics

From ABCs to reading, from numbers to counting and getting a handle on basic science and engineering principles, the early years of play help build a foundation for success.

Creativity & Imagination

Asking “what if?” Dreaming up new ways to see the world. Expressing oneself through imaginative play and storytelling. These are things great thinkers do, and they’re wonderful ways to open your child’s mind.

Relationship Skills

Taking turns, sharing, and getting along with others takes time and kindness; practicing while playing makes it easier. Plus, it’s bound to lead to your child’s first friendships!

Communication Skills

A child can always benefit from being able to focus and be a good listener. The ability to understand and express – both verbally and through non-verbal cues – is just as important.

Emotion & Self-Expression

Identifying feelings and knowing that others may feel differently are skills your child develops naturally through play. Developing empathy and using self-control to express those feelings appropriately will come with patience.

Security & Happiness

We all want our children to have emotional connections, to feel happy and secure – now and when they’re all grown up.
