Manhattan Toy® Expands its Colorful Whoozit® Line for Babies
Whoozit®, by Manhattan Toy, was the first character designed specially to hold babies' interest. Incorporating groundbreaking graphics and plenty of the developmental features the company is known for, Whoozit toys offer infants a wide variety of challenging activities. This year, Manhattan Toy is updating the Whoozit world with eight new innovative creations that are sure to become favorites.
The Whoozit® character, available in two sizes, has been redesigned with ultra-soft velour fabrics that little hands will love to hold. The new Whoozit® Car Mobile is designed to attach to the back of a car seat, with dangling pieces that sway as the car moves. It includes baby-safe mirrors that encourage self-discovery and bold colors and patterns proven to keep little ones' attention.
Busy babies will enjoy reaching for the intriguing playthings hanging from the three-dimensional Whoozit® Gym to Go. The gym folds flat for easy storage and travel and features an outside pocket that holds diapers and bottles. Like all Whoozit toys, the Gym to Go is crafted from bright, soft fabrics that babies can't resist.
With the Whoozit® Wiggle Ball, babies will learn about cause and effect as they build their developing motor skills. Multi-colored ribbons encourage exploration, and a pull on the Whoozit character activates an exciting jiggling motion.
There are lots of ways to play with the Whoozit® Star Play Panel. Its five engaging activities include a jiggling star, a hide-and-seek game, a baby-safe mirror, textured plastic beads to move and touch, and a pocket with a hidden surprise. Designed with the classic Whoozit colors and graphics, the Star Play Panel ties onto most crib rails and makes a wonderful floor toy as well.
The Whoozit® Chuckle Rattle is so much more than the traditional noisemaker. Simple movements produce a giggle sound, plastic stars move and turn, and the Whoozit character and other bright patterns give babies lots to look at. The rattle has a small handle that's easy for babies to grip and soft tubing that can be used for teething.
At bath time, there's Whoozit® Water Play, a colorful set of nesting shapes designed for both fun and learning. The stars can be stacked and sorted, the largest star strains, the middle star scoops and pours, and the smallest terry star can be used for washing behind little ears. The set also includes a Whoozit squirt toy.
Whoozit is just one of the innovative lines made specially for babies by Manhattan Toy, a company that is widely regarded for its commitment to creativity, quality craftsmanship and the success of the specialty retailer.
