IQ Baby at Toy Crossing!
IQ Baby makes toys that help create an enriched environment for children. Jane Healy in her book Your Child's Growing Mind compares a child's environment to it's nutrition. For a child to grow up to be strong and healthy it must have nourishing food. For the child to grow into a thinking, responsible adult, he or she must also be provided with a nourishing environment that includes appropriate play.
Ms. Healy puts it this way, "Enriched" would include stimulating playthings that become increasingly important for cognitive development after age one. Intersting and challenging play materials in children's homes after the first year predict later IQ and school achievement in reading and math. As in infancy, a child's firsthand involvement with objects and experiences is a catalyst for brain growth.
IQ Baby from Small World Toys makes a fun line of playsets that helps newborns to toddlers to grow healthy in an "enriched" environment.
