Play Tip!
Children who are tactile defensive can benefit from playing with these three gentle stimulation choices. Children have total control over which stimulus they activate and how long it operates. The soothing nature of the stimulation makwes this toy more inviting to a defensive child then "messy" and "sticky" sensations. A good introduction to tactile stimulation.

Shape Fitting for Children with Special Needs: Pop goes the Animals!
Pop Up Pets works on two sets of skills, puzzle-fitting and hammering on a set target. The "jumping out of the toy" effect is very motivating. A good feature is the animal heads on the pieces. When they face forward kids know that the pieces will fit into the holes. This is a more advanced shape sorter then the Sound Puzzle Box.
