Fisher-Price’s Laugh and Learn Smart Stages chair is designed to provide fun and educational activities for your little one based on his/her age and aptitude.
The chair, which plays songs and phrases when your baby sits or stands, includes three activity levels: The first level, for babies around a year old, is called Explore, and is geared toward early recognition of numbers and simple words like “up” or “down.”
The second level, Encourage, for babies around 18 months, teaches opposites and includes interactive activities. The third level, Pretend, is for toddlers around 2, and has prompts for creative playtime. All three levels include colors, shapes, numbers and counting activities.
Parents can program the chair according to their babies’ ages, or adjust the learning level manually. The chair, which runs on 3 AA batteries, also includes a manual adjustment for volume control, an empty compartment under the liftable seat, and a built-in book and “remote.”
The Laugh and Learn Smart Stages chair is available here.
