Hoot the Fine Motor Owl
This little owl feels a bit like a shape sorter. Your child can drop the coins into the slot at the top and flap Hoot's yellow wings to send the coins tumbling out her sides.Â
- The five coins are numbered, so your child can practise dropping them into the owl in the right order.
- Turn the eyes and watch the gears go round.
- Press the beak to hear it squeak.
A wonderful toy for curious little hands that love exploring cause and effect by playing the same game over and over. It’s great to discover that the coins behave the same way no matter their colour, and that pressing the owl’s beak won’t make them come out. Â
What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with
