“My son Logan tries different shapes and objects around the house and loves the feel of it on his hands” ~ Raluca
Another simple, inexpensive sensory toy idea from Raluca. a mom in the Cherab support group.
“Thought I’d share for those looking for sensory play. Found this toy at a thrift store and it has kept my son occupied for days. He tries different shapes and objects around the house and loves the feel of it on his hands. Did some research and apparently it’s called a pin point impression toy and you can find some on line.” ~ Raluca
I looked online and found it on Amazon for around 10 to 15 dollars but I’d recommend reading the reviews and getting one that is high quality. As per some of the descriptions, while a good sensory toy, the pin point impression toy may also be fun for other children in your house -who knows you may pick it up and start playing with it! I did notice a few of the listings had warnings that it’s not for children under 3 due to the small part, so a good suggestion if you have children older than 3 years old.
- CLASSIC TOY. Relive your childhood and pass on the fun to the next generation. Kids of all ages love this unique toy.
- SAFE, BLUNT PINS. Pins have blunt ends and will not cause harm if used carefully. Avoid using on the face. For kids over 3 years old.
- CREATE UNIQUE ART. Create designs by pushing the pins, or mold around household objects.
- ENDLESSLY ENTERTAINING. Keeps kids occupied for hours, encourages imagination.
I have to admit that I loves those things myself. My son as well.
