Toy Review: Manhattan Toy Put & Peek Birdhouse
A colorful and adorable toy that's very well suited to LSL strategies
This adorable Put and Peek Birdhouse by Manhattan Toy® provides ample LSL learning opportunities.
This toy received the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal award for its imaginative and playful design.
Guided by our instructors, we've used it for
- In and Out
- Open and Close
- Tweet Tweet sounds
- Bird-related songs, with flying hand motions (Bluebird, Bluebird, Out my Window is a favorite)
- Sharing
- Colors
- Turn-taking and
- A goodnight poem using the "nighttime" panel
The different panels and doors offer a varied landscape for activities. It's soft, so baby can be left alone with it to practice and explore. The birds make a very soft rattle sound, which hasn't distracted from the activities.
This toy has become a mainstay for us.
We received it as a gift from family, and at about $40, it's one of our more expensive toys. But, it has been well worth the price.
