TORONTO, June 4, 2024 /CNW/ - Fisher-Price® (NASDAQ:MAT), a pioneer in creating quality, educational toys for young kids, today unveiled its all-new wooden toy line, Fisher-Price Wood, for children ages six months to five years.

In addition, the products are made with wood from FSC®-certified sources and designed to last, allowing families to pass them down from generation to generation. With early childhood development at the forefront of Fisher-Price's purpose, these wooden toys offer a wide range of fun play patterns—from colorful puzzles and blocks to role play, music-making and more—that help spark creativity, develop fine motor skills, and stimulate problem-solving. Fisher-Price Wood is now available exclusively at select Walmart stores and on Walmart.ca.
Brian Fitzharris, SVP and General Manager, Fisher-Price, said: "For 94 years, Fisher-Price has been dedicated to helping children have the best possible start in life through innovative, trusted toys that provide hours of fun and enrichment. With the debut of Fisher-Price Wood—a line that harkens back to the brand's very roots—we're bringing a fresh perspective to the timeless appeal of wooden toys that are affordably priced, made from FSC©-certified wood, and designed to nourish a child's creativity and development."
