Sesame Street Stack and Nest Cups
CATEGORY: Toys
(Fisher Price)
Even very young infants-three months or so-can get into stacking cups. Of course, a bunch of empty yogurt containers works well, too, but this set of eight durable plastic cups has added dimensions. For one thing, they're bright, which makes it easy for baby eyes to see them and to distinguish the Sesame Street faces on the side. They stack up in graduated sizes to form a tower eighteen inches tall, and interlock so they don't take up a lot of storage space. Plus, a couple of them have patterns on the bottom, so they'll make nifty Sesame Street imprints in sand. And two of the cups also have strainers at the bottom, so your baby can let water stream through them in the tub.
Now, for the educational aspects. All this stacking and pouring and knocking down towers improves your baby's motor skills. And older kids can use the cups for counting, learning colors, and playing make-believe with the characters.
