Play Tip!

Pegboards are basic toys for practically all kids. Fitting a peg into a matching space is a very satisfying feeling. This exceptional pegboard has more possible play activities then the average. The "double" peg system facilitates interesting colour and size matching games. I love that the two kinds of pegs need different levels of fine motor skills, making this a toy that kids can grow with. Good for children with visual impairments as well.
