The great minds behind Start Smarter (another neighbor of Wallybug’s here in Atlanta, Georgia) feel that children should be educated while watching television. Children want to learn, they crave details, and they love the ability to impress their newfound knowledge upon their caregivers. The Start Smarter series of video offers rich educational content and safety lessons, which support their entertainment theme. We know of no other fire engine or train videos that attempt to reach the child like Start Smarter does. They even include an educational fire equipment board book with their fire videos and a steam train parts board book with their train video so the children can learn as they watch and review what they have learned. In addition, on their infant and toddler video, they not only introduce carefully selected words, but also themes that go with these words. This allows a child to place attributes with the selected words.
The creators of Start Smarter believe children should not be pushed into education, but appropriately challenged. When a child learns something new from repetition, watch his or her face light up with delight. Watch their self-confidence grow. This is what Start Smarter videos accomplish. They make parents and children alike feel good about what they are watching and learning. If your child is not engaged in their viewing, their brain waves actually slow down. Start Smarter videos engage the child’s mind!
Find all five Start Smarter videos in our Books/Music/Video department.

Wallybug is proud to introduce the Schoenhut® Piano Company: "Leader in the World of Toy Pianos since 1872." Schoenhut® toy pianos have delighted children, collectors, and professional musicians for decades. Since the company's founding in 1872 by German emigrant Albert Schoenhut, the keyboard's magical overtones, hypnotic charm, and unique sound have matured from novelty to fine musical instruments. Unsurpassed in quality, pitch, and durability, each traditional model is still crafted entirely by hand and individually tuned. The unique chime-like notes of Schoenhut® toy pianos are produced by little hammers striking metal bars, versus conventional taut wires used in full-sized models.
Schoenhut® toy pianos, designed for children and built to endure active play, are appropriate for young and old alike. Juiliard-graduate Margaret Leng Tan, an internationally acclaimed concert pianist, is an ardent fan of Schoenhut®. "Anything you can play on the big piano, you can play even better on a toy," Ms. Tan told USA Today upon release of her CD "The Art of the Toy Piano" (Point Music).
Studies show that children who are introduced to music at an early age benefit in many ways and perform better academically. Piano playing develops creativity, enhances motor skills, and promotes social interaction and self-esteem. Schoenhut’s® patented Learning System, with its play-by-color teaching method, was developed to encourage basic music skills and make playing simple and fun. A removable color strip fits behind the keys to guide small fingers from chord to chord. The chart adapts perfectly to full-sized pianos because keys on Schoenhut® toy pianos are of corresponding width ~ thus teaching children proper "finger stretch" from the very beginning and making the transition to a large piano easy. Each toy piano has one and a half to three octaves (depending on the model), compared with seven and a half on an adult piano. The Learning System Songbook contains a collection of familiar tunes.
Demonstrating their durability, longevity, and collectability, Schoenhut® vintage toy pianos are featured at a number of prestigious museums and galleries. One such exhibit at Strong Museum in Rochester, NY provides an overview of the company's rich and interesting heritage. For the finest quality toy pianos, complete customer satisfaction, and knowing your investment may become a treasured heirloom ~ the name you can trust......Schoenhut®.
