Tactile River Stones - Set of 5
Set of 5 Gonge River Stones with different tactile surfaces:
- Aluminium, cement, cork, rubber, and foam.
Explore the different textures and sensations. Some surfaces feel hard, others soft —some cool, others pleasantly warm.Â
Try spacing the stones out and let kids hop from one to the next without touching the floor. The River Stones have non-slip rubber bases, so they stay put while protecting your floors.
Balancing on the River Stones helps strengthen your child’s vestibular sense, and it’s a great way to build confidence if they’re a little wary of heights.

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

Suitable for children aged 3 yrs. to 11 yrs.Motor skills furniture is the complete opposite of sitting still and staying calm. Rocking and rolling can actually help children with motor restlessness calm down. Your child's vestibular sense and proprioception need input to function optimally. And when your child's need for sensory input is met, the body can relax and function better.
Motor skills furniture from ToyAcademy is durable and will withstand years of use.
