Stacking Ring Cone Switch

Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.

Stacking Ring Cone Is a Great Teaching Tool

This fun stacking toy is great for teaching children how to discriminate between sizes and colors. Plus, it's great for sharpening their visual motor skills, too! When the colorful wooden rings are stacked in the proper order, the built-in music box will begin to play: The cone is specially-designed so you can plug it into one of our switch- adapted toys. Stack the rings properly and the device will activate - it's that easy! Has a 1/8" plug. Requires 1 "AA" battery. (Please note: when used as a switch the music will not play.)

Play Tip PLAY Tip

High contrast for low vision.

High visual contrast helps children with low vision or cortical blindness find and visually track toys. Use backgrounds to create contrast. Three tablecloths (black, white, yellow) and a bright light will help almost any toy to visually pop out! Spread a black cloth on the floor and shine a light on it. Now send the Musical Turtle on a trek across the cloth. It is so much easier to track now! Pick the appropriate colour background for each new toy, and turn up the contrast!
