Mirari Shellby Droppin’, Poppin’, Rollin’

(PlayMonster $19.99)

Drop the four pastel balls into the snail’s shell and roll it along—pop, pop, pop, the balls bounce and pop out of the snails mouth. An active lesson in cause and effect. Or hit the lever on the back of the snail and discover another way to make the balls pop. Good active toy for crawlers to push, chase the balls, put them back in the shell, and do it all over again. The balls make a nice sound and it all happens without batteries! 9 months and up. We think this would also make a great gift for a first birthday.

Ages: Infants, Toddlers
