Playtime makes Brainy Babies
11
By Karen Viera
Playtime, Inc., a leading maker of infant and toddler products, announced a new division
including
books and teaching materials called Baby School.
Marketed as a baby’s first experience with learning, the division is aimed at the growing number
of
parents who enroll their children in educational centers at and sometimes before the age of two.
Ranging from numbers to animals and even foreign languages, Baby School Books will include
titles from most subjects. “We came up with the idea after hearing about basic foreign language
classes attended by parents with their infants,” said Playtime Planning Executive Robert R.
Hershire. “Studies show that educating children at their earliest years can help increase scores
and possibly boost IQs. Parents are responding positively, which is encouraging.”
Baby School’s first publications will include a book of beginning words in phrases in Spanish,
French, and German. There will also be a book of numbers and beginning math as well as
introductory science, which will include topics such as animals and space.
“We’re confident we will get a positive response based on the interest we’ve already
experienced,”
said Hershire referring to high orders from book and baby stores. Baby School products will
debut
this Friday.
