4. How did we do it? The Teams: We have 2 teams of experts – A group of Child Specialists (Child Psychologist, Speech Pathologist, Child Physical Therapist, pediatric occupational therapist and a Special Educator) and a group of over 700 moms (affectionately called our Mother Board). The Toys: We looked at over 10,000 developmental toys (yes, 10,000) from well-known manufacturers around the world and narrowed the list down to the 600 best learning toys. Each toy on eBeanstalk is carefully selected, tested and approved and comes with the eBeanstalk Seal of Approval.

5. How did we do it? The Stages of Child Development: Our Child Specialists identified the stages of development children grow through. They matched 7 core skills (called Head-to-Toe) - Imagination, Education, Language, Dexterity, Locomotion, Emotion and Social – with the stages of a child’s development to provide a simple, focused explanation of each stage. Matching the Toys with the Stages of Development: We carefully matched each learning toy with the appropriate stage of development. No more “for a child 2 and up”. Our toys are matched to 3 month incremental stages.

6. How did we do it? The Gift Series: Each Gift Series consists of 4 expert selected educational toys. Then 4 times a year a new toy is delivered to your special child when they need it. Think of it like the “Developmental Toy of the Quarter Club.” Instruction cards: Our team of child experts wrote custom instruction cards that provide a description of the toy, explain why we chose each toy and offers great Graduated Play ideas...our instruction cards will ensure your child and you will get the most out of each toy. Toys are for learning, and learning is complicated. Our cards make it easy The White Box: Many times the box is more fun than the toy. That is why we made the eBeanstalk box white...so you can make it into a fort, paint a jungle scene or turn the box into your own custom car.

12. A message from the founders about toy safety. At eBeanstalk we are dedicated to a child’s development and learning, and we never compromise a child’s safety. Rest assured that NONE of the recalled toys from Mattel or Fisher Price have ever been sold at eBeanstalk. NOT ONE. We as retailers must be advocates for our customers and not solely rely on the manufacturers. First, we are working with all of our manufactures to ensure all safety steps have been made in the manufacturing process. If we are not satisfied, we remove the manufacturer from our site. Second, we lead-test the toys ourselves. And third, we are offering free lead testing of any toy from any retailer that is brought into our store. We recognize the seriousness of parents' concerns, and we never compromise when it comes to a child's safety.
