Hand/Finger Strength

These toys and materials all require the exertion of differing degrees of hand and finger strength. Some are cool tools like the 3 point grabber, mini hole punch or clay pictures and clay presses. Then there are the games- the really fun things like the zeebeez, bear popper, mega jumps, monkey exerciser, and r bands. These activities are so engaging and fun, oh and strengthening too!

Warning - Choking Hazard.  Not for children under 3 years old.
The fun colors and shapes of this take anywhere puzzle game with the built in game boards, draws in everyone! The 101 puzzles start out as a simple design copy task. Players place pieces on the 3” x 5” recessed and dimpled playing areas as shown in the 48 page design book. Beginning puzzles leave out only one piece that players must fit into the remaining recesses. As you progress the exact location of more and more pieces are not provided and so more and more puzzle must be solved. After all the rectangular puzzles are solved try the 3-D pyramid puzzles, if you dare! Great for building on problem solving, spatial concepts, visual imagery and concentration skills.

Super Stretch ABC

A great way to get kids up and stretching while also working on their auditory comprehension, direction following and beginning letter sound recognition. Five letter or picture coins are dropped into holes on the board through a motivating, fun to operate mechanism. the other players, "the callers" then tell the "stretcher" who is standing on the alphabet mat, which body parts they should use to touch the letters/pictures. The "stretcher" scores points by touching as many of them as they are able at the same time! Make play simpler by requiring only 3 or 2 spots to be touched at the same time or maybe the touching occurs sequentially and not all at the sametime. Fun, Dr. Seuss themed game to reinforce listening skills and overall strength and motor coordination.
