Products Details
By playing with this frame, the child will develop coordination, ability to concentrate and skills of independence. This frame is made from cotton material and contains five snap buttons. On the surface, the child is learning to manipulate snaps so that she can dress herself. Fun and practical! A little deeper, we see that she’s developing neural motor connections, following logical steps, exercising decision–making when she chooses to do the activity, problem–solving when she sees her own mistake, and so much more. This product is also suitable for persons with disabilities, special needs and those recovering from brain injury. Size: 30.5 cm x 31.5 cm. PLEASE NOTE: Colours may vary Presentation Introduction
