Introducing the New Fisher Price Laugh & Learn Smart Stages Chair

Saturday, October 11, 2014


Thinking back on how many toys the kids have had over the years, I am flabbergasted by the number of toys that served their purpose for a relatively short time. In some cases, my kids simply had no interest. In others, the kids outgrew them faster than the designer outfit their aunties bought for them for Christmas. With the exception of a really sweet party thrown together by colleagues at my first school here in Toronto, I never had a baby shower so we were very particular with what we purchased for our growing babies. Several toys the kids enjoyed in their toddler years were in fact handed down from my nephew or from my goddaughter once they no longer needed them, many of them bearing the Fisher-Price logo. These were the toys that I look back on with fondness, in addition to a must-have nursery item - the Fisher-Price Cradle N Swing - which I had purchased second-hand. Not only were they sanity-savers, they were extremely durable and withstood endless hours of play even after three or four children outgrew them. But just imagine if they could last even longer, adapting to developmental stages as your child grows, just like the new Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Smart Stages Chair!

One of the things my kids liked to do when they were infants was mimic mom and dad. They wanted to be just like the big people and the original Laugh & Learn chair was perfect for that. With the NEW Smart Stages Chair, little ones can do that and whole lot more. And with simple, straightforward assembly, mom and dad can have the chair ready in no time. It comes with five parts, screws and instructions which I suggest you read first. It took me less than five minutes to build before I realized that it is much easier to install the batteries first before assembling the rest of the chair. Also note that the conjoined rear legs have a protruding lip which helps prevent the chair from tipping backwards when baby tries to mimic daddy's infamous reclined position.


The Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Smart Stages Chair has a similar flip book as the original with brightly-coloured images.


In lieu of a lamp, the new chair has a light-up remote to help teach baby about numbers and shapes.


It also features a "magic" ABC seat that knows when baby sits, activating learning songs and phrases when baby stands. And the lift-up cushion is perfect for a fun game of peek-a-boo.


But what makes this chair so unique is the Laugh & Learn Smart Stages technology. It is what allows this chair to evolve with age-appropriate learning content that suits your child's learning stage, all with a flip of a switch.




This new Smart Stages technology is now available in all of the newest products in the Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn product line. It is so smart that you can enter baby's age for automatic content updates or you can update manually as baby grows. Now experiential learning through play can keep baby engaged as they grow and develop at their own pace, offering added value to parents. The three Smart Stages levels of play include over 50 fresh songs, phrases and sounds that match your baby's age and stage:

Level 1 - Explore: 6M+ First words and sounds spark baby’s curiosity
Level 2 - Encourage: 12M+ Prompt baby though questions and simple directions 
Level 3 - Pretend: 18M+ Imaginative fun and early role play


Don't forget to check out the fun online games and apps designed to complement your child's learning. The Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Smart Stages Chair retails for $49.99 but is currently available at Walmart for $44.94. And yes, it also available en français! Luckily, Fisher-Price has offered up a Laugh & Learn Smart Stages Chair to a lucky reader here on Toronto Teacher Mom.
