Description

Ten interchangeable graphic cards offer a range of simple high-contrast images to more complex colored patterns and graphics to foster visual development. Graphic cards are labeled by age to guide you with recommended graphics to use as baby's vision develops. The Car Seat Gallery is constructed of a sturdy nylon material with an adjustable strap that allows for easy attachment to car seats and other various play areas.

-You can also make your own cards using photos, graphics, or images. If you are using images, try to find ones without much background detail to make the image clearer for your child. Images without any background are the best!

About Wimmer-Ferguson:
Wimmer-Ferguson is the original leader in research-based, high contrast colors and images for infant visual development. Reflecting over 40 years of academic research, the graphics and patterns on all Wimmer-Ferguson products adapt to a baby's changes in visual development by featuring a range of designs, complexity, and color. Wimmer-Ferguson's high-contrast images stimulate infants to encourage visual scanning, tracking and focusing. Professional research has shows that newborns are more attracted to high-contrast patterns than to color or brightness alone. Starting around 3 months, changes in the eye significantly increase a baby's ability to see color so patterns with color begin to play a larger role in development. The patterns on all Wimmer-Ferguson products adapt to baby's changes in visual development by featuring a range of design complexity and color. Simple patterns and faces are repeated from one toy to another allowing baby to learn pattern recognition. The toys in the Wimmer-Ferguson collection encourage hand-eye coordination, gross motor activity, self-awareness, sense of object permanence, and experience with cause and effect.

Activities and Outcomes
Babies, toddlers and young children playfully engage with a collection of multi-sensory activity toys and books, play sets, finger puppets, rattles and teethers. A variety of colorful, high-contrast patterns and textured shapes support early multi-sensory development, gross motor skills, image recognition, dexterity and beginner reading.

About:
At Manhattan Toy, they know that playtime is one of the most fundamental parts of childhood development. Year after year, the company strives to stretch its creative skills to create unique, high quality toys to expand little ones' imaginations and creative play.

The Manhattan Toy team makes frequent factory visits to ensure quality and safety standards are consistently met. All its toys are thoroughly tested to the most exacting U.S. and international standards. The company uses thoroughly tested, water-based paints and wood from sustainable forests for its wood toys.

Before Francis Goldwyn, the famous grandson of Hollywood studio mogul Samuel Goldwyn, founded Manhattan Toy, he left Hollywood to become a New York accountant! In 1978, his entrepreneurial spirit led him to start a toy company featuring a style of intentionally under-stuffed plush toys, which he eventually sold. The new owners moved the company to Minneapolis, where it continues to thrive and grow.

Headquarters located in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
