The activity is great for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:

• This type of play stimulates gross motor skills in your child. It especially involves their ability to control the coordination of their legs and arms.
• Strengthens your child's vestibular sense, which strengthens concentration, ability to learn, and balance.
• This type of play improves your little one's ability to cooperate and put themselves in someone else's place.

Suitable for ages 2 yrs. to 8 yrs.

Your child can simply play with this toy without first having to figure out how it works. Here, there is no right or wrong way to play, and there is no rulebook. The goal is simply playing and being in the present moment. At Toy Academy, we call this type of play intuitive play. It's also called "open ended play". We recommend that you pause and watch what happens when your child plays in ways that let them follow their intuition.

As opposed to types of play which focus on achieving a result or playing within specific boundaries, intuitive play will most often let you have a fascinating peek into your child’s own imagination, thought process, and problem-solving skills.

Motor skills furniture is almost the exact opposite of sitting still and staying calm. Rocking and rolling can actually help children with motor restlessness keep calm. Your child's vestibular sense and proprioception need input to function optimally. And when your child's senses get the input they need, the body can relax and function better.

Motor skills furniture from Toy Academy is tough and will withstand years of use.
