Baby Genius Interview at Time to Play Showcase by ToyQueen
At Time To Play Magazine Holiday Toy Preview in New York City, ToyQueen Keri Wilmot interviews Larry Balaban from Baby Genius about the developmental aspects of their toys and the Circle of Education curriculum. Larry Balaban of Baby Genius has helped to develop preschool and role play toys that empower parents to be successful in enhancing their child’s development. Toys highlighted in the interview include the Krinkle Set, which are tactile blocks that can be put together, that allow children to use their creativity and imagination to build “on the go” items such as a helicopter and a racecar. The toy, Old McVinko’s Farm, where the characters are based on the successful DVD series, is a farm playset for children to listen to the music while they explore all areas of the farm. The Circle of Education was created in conjunction with San Diego State University to assist parents with assisting their children with readiness for the Kindergarten curriculum. There are 20 songs that can be downloaded from the website for free that teach classroom routines through music. The music will also be translated into different languages for use all over the world.
