Background

Playskool Children's Educational Software was a short-lived brand of Hasbro Electronic Entertainment used to release software and games based on Playskool's properties such as Mr. Potato Head, although it also produced games based on some of Hasbro's properties such as Play-Doh and Tonka. After 1996, games based on Playskool properties used the regular Hasbro Interactive logo.

Logo (1995-1996)

Visuals: On a black background, the logo used for Playskool in the mid-1990s falls from the above and bounces. When it stops, the words "CHILDREN'S EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE" fade in below.

Technique: 2D digital animation.

Audio: Four xylophone notes are heard when the Playskool logo falls, followed by a child-friendly banjo/xylophone tune accompanied by kids shouting "PLAYSKOOL!" and laughing.

Availability: It's found on CD-ROM games released by Playskool.^[Examples?]
