Keypers were made in the 1980's by Tonka and consisted of large, hard plastic bodied adults and small soft plastic bodied babies. The adult Keypers had a key (with their name on) which locked and unlocked a door somewhere about their body, and the baby Keypers had a slit in their backs where you could store things.

The first series of adult and baby Keypers had six different animal types (including two with variations). They all had non glittery eyes and short, mono coloured hair, whilst the second series had 11 pairs with glittery eyes and long, multi coloured hair. Five of these pairs were reissues from the first series, some looking quite different, and there were also six new additions. All adults came with various accessories including a key, brush & a keyring which they both slotted onto. Some also came with hats and neck frills. The babies also came with brushes (slightly smaller than the adults, no loop at the end for the keyring) and other accessories such as bottles and bibs.

Along with the plastic toys there were large plush adult Keypers, books, games and other items.

There were at least three playsets made for the baby Keypers to play in.

The Secret Stroller came with the stroller itself, a purple stand and a pink butterfly/flower key which opened up the bottom of the stroller.

The Treasure Bed came with a pink butterfly/flower key which opened up the mattress. I have also heard of a playset called Royal Bed & Crib but wonder whether it is this playset released under a different name as I have seen no evidence of it.

The Hideaway Home came with a purple butterfly/flower key which opened the top of the tree house along the centre. This playset is also referred to as the Treehouse.
