Rainbow Twist Cubes 5"

Play Tip!

Fingers and hands need to develop both strength and dexterity in order to be able to perform complex activities like writing. As children slide the blocks past each other and click them into new positions they will be improving their eye-hand coordination, strength, and of course creating a beautiful sculpture! For a more difficult challenge, use two Rainbow Twist Cubes. Can the child copy the shape that you create?

Play Tip PLAY Tip

Pon Pon: Sensory Integration, Balance and Coordination

A great indoor/outdoor toy, especially for children with mild balance and coordination issues or general developmental delays. Start with simply bouncing in place and then work up to real bouncing. The strong kinesthetic stimulation can help some children with autism "click" into attentiveness. Good for indoor winter exercise in cold northern climes.
