What does our OT says:
The Geoboard is a versatile tool in every OT's toolbox and here is why:
-
Fine Motor Skills: Geoboards provide an excellent opportunity for fine motor practice. Children manipulate elastic bands by stretching and placing them around pegs on the board. This will strengthens hand muscles, improves finger dexterity and enhances precision in finger movements. This is important aspects to improve handwriting
-
Visual Motor Integration: When children create shapes or patterns on the geoboard using elastic bands, they engage in visual-motor integration. This skill involves coordinating visual information (what they see) with motor actions (what they do). This is a crucial skill to develop and improve copying.
-
Spatial Awareness: Geoboards encourage spatial exploration. Children learn about symmetry, area, and perimeter as they create geometric shapes (such as squares, triangles, and rectangles) on the board.
-
Math Concepts: Geoboards introduce basic geometry concepts. Children explore shape attributes, angles, and spatial arrangements.
-
Creativity and Problem-Solving: Geoboards allow open-ended exploration. Children can design their own patterns, replicate existing shapes, or create abstract designs. This foster creativity and critical thinking.
-
Hand-Eye Coordination: Placing elastic bands accurately on the pegs requires precise hand-eye coordination.
An added bonus to this set is the threading bear, a charming wooden bear-shaped piece equipped with laces for threading. This delightful activity is perfect for keeping little ones engaged during travel or quiet moments. Children can practice their fine motor skills while threading the laces through the bear’s holes, creating patterns and designs.
Let customers speak for us
Apologies but in my review below Yvette should read Ezette.
Excellent service from Yvette, thank you. Our grandson loved his Christmas present of the tunnel!
Beautifully made. Our learners are going to have so much fun playing with these
My son loves these, we put them in all his textures to have hum pick it out.
Very interesting for toddler to put together and to learn the different characters
Both my granddaughters aged 1 and 3 love this!
Excellent service, thank you.
I was pleasantly surprised by how engaged my 1year old son was with this toy. He spent so much time taking the veggies out and trying to fit them back into the holes, even testing out different ones. It kept him busy as he packed the veggies in and out repeatedly. It's a simple yet clever toy that holds his attention for longer than I expected. Highly recommend it!
The variety of activities keeps my 1 year old son entertained and engaged. I love that it's not just fun but also educational, helping him with fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and problem-solving. The quality is fantastic, and it's sturdy enough to handle the rough play of a curious toddler. It’s definitely a toy I’d recommend to any parent looking for something that can grow with their child!
We absolutely love this swing! so great for tummy swinging.
My child (14 months) absolutely loves this game!
