An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for teaching sequencing principles. An educational toy is provided with a plurality of panels that interlock with each other in a sequential pattern to form a multi-sided enclosure. A coded element may be represented on at least one of the panels. The coded element may be an element in a series forming a sequence to indicate the sequence pattern of the various panels. The sequence code or pattern to open the multi-sided enclosure is encrypted in the structural design of the various panels. Additional educational material may be represented on the various panels. In addition, an object containing educational material thereon may be included in the interior of the multi-sided enclosure.
A multiple-sided activity device for toy blocks is disclosed. The activity device has a first side including a first activity adapted to interact with at least one of the plurality of toy blocks. The activity device also has a second side distinct from the first side, the second side including a block recognition mechanism configured to selectively interact with any of the plurality of toy blocks to identify which of the plurality of toy blocks is interacting with the block recognition mechanism and to produce block-specific sensory stimulating output.
An entertainment device for use by pets. The entertainment device can have a hollow enclosure with access openings and exit openings. The hollow enclosure may have one or more play items with diameters larger than the access openings and the exit openings within the hollow enclosure. The hollow enclosure may also have one or more smaller play items with diameters larger than the access openings and smaller than the exit openings. The smaller play items may be used external to the hollow enclosure to entertain the pet.

The invention includes a toy having a translucent body that includes a first surface and a second surface. A light source is disposed opposite the first surface. The first surface includes an image of a facial feature in a first position and the second surface includes an image of the same facial feature in a second position. When the light source is illuminated, the facial feature appears to be in the first position and when the light source is not illuminated, the facial feature appears to be in the second position. An audible output generator produced audible output simultaneously with illumination of the light source.
