Fisher-Price little habitancy have been moving young children for over 50 years. These charming little playthings are some of the most well-recognized toys ever created. What started as a peg shaped set of a few characters has evolved into an empire of little habitancy characters and accessories. The older pieces and sets are now collector's items and the recent versions are more popular with children than ever.
The first little habitancy figures were introduced in 1959 with a security School bus that included six peg shaped children that could be removed, and a driver that remained inside, and who's head moved as the bus was pushed or pulled. From 1959 until 1990 Fisher-Price prolonged to make the peg shaped little habitancy characters with assorted improvements in found and materials. These are called the "Original little People" by collectors. The first unblemished play set was the Play family Barn, which began selling in 1968. The barn doors made a moo sound when opened and the farm and family figures could be stored inside. It was an instant hit and a wide range of play sets followed.
After 1990 the little habitancy line of toys went straight through a few transformations prominent up to today's characters. In 1991 Chunky little People, or Jumbo little habitancy as collectors call them, appeared in toy stores to address the need for safer children's toys. They were wider than the originals and had more facial details. Then in 1997 articulated little habitancy were introduced with moving arms and legs instead of the old peg bodies. These had even more details such as molded hair, and extra vibrant colors. And in 2000 electronic sounds and lights were added to some sets.
The Fisher-Price little habitancy toys ready today look very separate from their ancestors. Some of the animals have fur to simulate real animal textures. There are musical and talking accessories, lights, and interlocking pieces. Many of the same former play sets are still moving the children of today, but with contemporary enhancements and character roles. For example the Play family Farm and Play family House are favorites with toddlers and pre-school children today much the same as they were generations ago. Now there are dozens of packaged little habitancy sets that coordinate together and encourage creativity and imaginative role play in young children.
