Originally started in the Bronx, New York in 1953 as the toy division of New York Archer Plastics. The company developed Child Guidance a variety of other childhood development-focused toys in the 1960s. Archer Plastics and Child Guidance were founded by inventor Robert Genin who continued to design and invent new toys for the company until retiring in 1970. In 1967 Child Guidance was sold to Dunhill-Questor who continued to sell new toys that Genin designed. After his departure, the brand was used on many Sesame Street toys in the 70s before Questor and the brand were bought by CBS toys in 1978. CBS sold some other Child Guidance products such as Child Guidance Railroad under the Gabriel name before the Child Guidance name was phased out in the later 1980s when Hasbro bought CBS Toys.
