The perfect height for shared play!
Weave a water-world story around the colorful screen printed marine symbols depicted on an interactive knee-high maze table. Surfing wooden fish beads over the wobbly waves or making them dive into the whirlpool to escape from sharks develops talking and listening skills, reinforce eye/hand co-ordination, and recognition of colors and shapes. Suitable for one or two children cognitively aged 2-7 to share. Play wires are securely anchored into a solid wooden surface on easy to assemble screw-in legs. (15.5" x 20" High)

Eight In A Row: Developing Pre-Reading Skills
Before a child can learn to read, there are essential "pre-reading" skills that a child must master. Three of the most important are sequencing, left-right progression, and time progression (before and after). All can be explored and practiced with Eight In A Row. The puzzles show scenes that are familiar to most children. There is a child making a painting and a child getting up in the morning. Each piece has only one place to fit it onto the next piece, so children with delayed fine motor skills can usually manage the puzzle-fitting with a minimum of frustration.
