Fisher-Price Laugh & Learn Pull & Play Learning Wagon review

Fisher-Price's Laugh & Learn Pull & Play Learning Wagon is the toy on this list that best bridges baby and toddler. Fisher-Price rates it for 6 to 36 months. A sitting baby can bat, press, rattle and flip the activities: light-up shape buttons, xylophone keys, crayon buttons, a shape-sorter lid and 3 puzzle pieces. Once the child walks, a motion sensor rewards pulling the wagon along. Fisher-Price lists 135+ songs, sounds and phrases across 3 Smart Stages levels that introduce numbers, counting, shapes, colors, the alphabet and Spanish words. The box holds 1 wagon and 4 play pieces. The limits are that it is electronic, so it runs on batteries and makes noise, and it offers less open-ended building than the Lovevery or MEGA BLOKS sets. Mattel's US store showed a Where To Buy link rather than a direct price when we checked, so we could not verify a USD price.
