Butterfly Light And Music Puzzle
Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.
Enchanting Puzzle Helps Develop Mental Imagery
Ideal for teaching spatial relations, this delightful butterfly puzzle is equipped with removable blocks that accommodate four differently shaped and colored pegs. As each peg is correctly inserted into its corresponding block, a string of lights on the butterfly's wings start flashing. When all the pegs are successfully put in place, music plays and the butterfly's eyes light up. It's fun to watch and enjoy!

PLAY Tip
Interpreting Facial Emotions
Many children (especially those with autism-like conditions) have difficulty interpreting facial expressions and understanding why people feel certain emotions. Moody Bear Puzzle, Emotion Cards, Smart Alex software all offers an opportunity to recognize expressions and hopefully talk about why the person might be happy or frightened. Try using them with a mirror and perhaps Polaroids of familiar people showing the same emotions. Eventually see if your child can make (and understand) the expressions, then take their pictures!
