An online specialty toy company, Discovery Toys, promotes early childhood learning by creating toys and books that are designed to challenge and educate youngsters from an early age — without sacrificing fun. A brightly colored set of tablet-like trilingual books ($19.99), for instance, introduces the numbers one through 20, teaching tots not only how to count, but also number and word recognition. Discovery Toys enhances physical, emotional, social, and intellectual growth. Other products include a nubby-textured Tangiball ($9.99, 12 months–preschool), which helps to develop gross motor skills, and the Busy Time play box (24.99, 18 months–preschool), which features big blocks for shape sorting and encourages problem solving. Each toy underscores the concept of learning through play, and the unusual shapes and vibrant colors make them appealing to children.
