Tobbles Neo

A cool innovative approach to nesting toys. Tobbles Neo stacks, spins, wobbles, tilts and so much more.

Why I Love This: Tobbles Neo promotes fine motor skills, bilateral coordination, problem solving and sensory exploration.

FYI: This won the best toy award in 2012 and 2013. Ages 6 months and up.

Owl Shape Sorter by Plan Toys

A great first shape sorter for toddlers.

Why I Love This: It's not visually over stimulating which provides kids with opportunity to focus on task and learn.

FYI: 12 months and up

ZOOB

Here is another cool new construction toy. The pieces are movable once you connect them,  letting you play with whatever you create instead of just look at it. Use your imagination or get ideas from some of the sample pictures. The options are endless to what you can make.

Why I Love This: ZOOB construction promotes creativity, imagination and hand skills.

FYI: For kids 6-10 years old.

Fingerprint Activities

Fingerprinting is a motivating and fun idea for preschoolers.

 Why I Love This:  Great for promoting finger isolation which is a prerequisite for fine motor skills later on.

FYI: Kids might need some adult guidance to complete the activities.

Wrapper Snapper

Encourage your child to use two hands together with Wrapper Snappers.
They bend, stretch and link together while making a cool sound.

Why I Love this: Wrapper Snappers are great for getting your child's attention, working on coordination and upper body strengthening

FYI: 18 months and up.
