Toys

Playing with toys is the first opportunity a child has to explore and interact with the world on their own terms. To children, toys are more than just objects: they are companions, teachers, and super heroes that help guide them through a big and sometimes confusing world. They assist the physical, cognitive and emotional development that prepares children for adulthood. The Creativity Institute divides toys into four categories: 

Toys for physical or muscle development such as wagons, bikes, boxes, puzzles, blocks, brooms, and shovels. 

Toys for sensory (touch, sight, sound, taste, smell) development such as water toys, musical instruments, bubbles, play dough, and sand toys. 

Toys for make-believe and social development such as dolls, dress-up clothes, cars, trucks, games, and books. 

Toys for creative and intellectual development such as clay, crayons, paints, books, paper, and scissors. At Billie & Roo we believe the best toys are ones that engage a child’s senses, spark their imaginations, and encourage them to interact with others. We love toys!

The weighted stainless steel beads roll between fingers beautifully. Many also rub the cord. This fidget is super soft in effect.  

Push your fingers in between the beads for a similar sensation to the pea popper.  

It is particularly great for those that stim with fabric, Blu-Tack rollers or like low sensory input as it glides between the fingers & is very calming. It is small, discreet and quiet. It is a quiet fidget, making it ideal for the workplace, travel or the classroom.
