Plato once said, “You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation.”

Little Tikes thinks so too!

In today’s busy world it is easy to get caught up in our daily routines. It’s so important to take time out of our day to play one on one with our kids. Building strong connections is key in the life of a child. That is why our toys are enjoyed by, not just children, but the parents who play along. We see time together at home as great opportunities to engage in both free and structured play with our children. Making playtime a perfect way to bond within families and build relationships. One moment that comes to mind, are the few months right before a baby begins to walk. A cautious and exciting time, when voice tone and physical gestures help encourage your child to their precious little feet. This is why Little Tikes developed the Discover & Learn Activity Center to prepare the little movers and shakers for the big day when they can move upright.  With multiple stages and ways to interact, this activity center is perfect for spending time together.
