| Product Details | | | | | Makes any outing a cause & effect adventure with a fun bounce-back grasshoper with crinkly wings, a baby-activated woodpecker and more...
Senses * The colorful toys and the movement of the colorful beads develop baby's sense of sight. * The different sounds: the rustling of beads, the sound made when squeezing the woodpecker's tail, the ding of the bell and the crinkle of the wings, all help develop hearing. * The wide range of materials: different fabrics, smooth and textured plastic, provide a wealth of sensations and develop baby's sense of touch. * With baby looking, touching and listening she develops her senses and the coordination between them.
Fine Motor Skills Each of the toys offers several fine motor and eye-hand coordination challenges, and baby must use her fingers and hand muscles in different ways:
* She must pull the pink ball with her entire hand or knock the woodpeckers head to hear the bell ring. * She must squeeze the woodpeckers tail with several fingers to hear it squeak. * She must hit the flowers on the bottle holder with force in order to make the beads roll around. * In this way, baby uses her hands and improves her control of them.
Cognition * As she plays with the toys, baby learns the connection between her actions and their responses: * Pulling the pink ball will make the woodpecker peck at the bell. * A light tap on the grasshopper will cause it to sway and the beads to rattle around gently, and a harder knock will cause it to bend downwards and the beads to move about faster and the noise to be louder. * Squeezing the woodpeckers tail will cause it to squeak. | |
