Learning Resources Spike The Fine Motor Hedgehog, Toddler, Kids, Multicolor

Again a very creative toy for teaching colors and numbers as well as for fine motor skill development in a toddler. Well designed, sturdy and of high quality. The most interesting part for me is that even my 5 month old shows interest in this toy, is able to pull out the spikes and fiddles around with the toy.

I bought this for baby grandson when he was 10 months old. He could just about place one of the spikes. Four months on he still loves it. He has not got the concentration to fit all of the spikes but it is good for hand eye coordination. We play feeding the hedgehog and the spikes have been used as pretend characters when he is playing with his vehicles. You can store the spikes in the toy so that the spikes don’t get lost. Nice quality plastic.

Surprisingly good value for money. Lots of skills to build and schemas to support in a single toy - fine motor, sorting/colour/pattern recognition, memory, counting, transporting. Makes for a perfect gift!

Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog has been a delightful addition to our home, providing not only fun but also educational value for my little one. This toy is brilliantly designed to foster fine motor skills development, and it’s wonderful to see my child’s hand muscles strengthen as they play. The chunky, peg-shaped quills are perfect for small hands to grasp, making it an excellent toy for both toddlers and preschoolers. The vibrant colors of the quills are not just appealing; they serve as a fantastic tool for teaching color recognition, sorting, and counting. It’s been amazing to watch my child arrange the quills by warm or cool colors, create sequences and patterns, and count them as they play. Another aspect I appreciate about Spike is its use in occupational therapy exercises. It’s a great resource for parents and therapists looking for engaging ways to improve fine motor skills in children. Additionally, its suitability for visually impaired children highlights its inclusive design. Storage is a breeze with this toy. After playtime, the quills fit snugly inside the hedgehog’s body, making clean-up easy and keeping all pieces secure and organized. The plastic material is easy to clean, which is a must for any toy in a busy household. In conclusion, Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog is more than just a toy; it’s a valuable educational tool that aids in the development of crucial skills while ensuring hours of fun. Its thoughtful design, educational benefits, and ease of storage make it a top choice for any parent looking to enrich their child’s playtime.
