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!

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.)

Sort and Fit Board Teaches Fine Motor Control
Pegboards are basic toys for practically all kids. Fitting a peg into a matching space is a very satisfying feeling. This exceptional pegboard has more possible play activities then the average. The "double" peg system facilitates interesting colour and size matching games. The two kinds of pegs need different levels of fine motor skills, making this a toy that kids can grow with. Good for children with visual impairments and general developmental delays.
