Stacking Ring Cone Switch
Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.
Stacking Ring Cone Is a Great Teaching Tool
This fun stacking toy is great for teaching children how to discriminate between sizes and colors. Plus, it's great for sharpening their visual motor skills, too! When the colorful wooden rings are stacked in the proper order, the built-in music box will begin to play: The cone is specially-designed so you can plug it into one of our switch- adapted toys. Stack the rings properly and the device will activate - it's that easy! Has a 1/8" plug. Requires 1 "AA" battery. (Please note: when used as a switch the music will not play.)

PLAY Tip
When is it good to be a creepy crawly?
To help children with low muscle tone or strength learn to creep, try putting them at the top of a gently slanting smooth board. Put an interesting toy like a Skwish, at the bottom and watch them go! A couple of hints for kids who are slow to get it:
Bare feet help.
You can place your palms at the soles of their feet to give them something to push off against.
If needed, flex their legs reciprically to help them learn the movement pattern.
