Turquoise Bird-Call Whistle

If your child is learning to focus on their breathing, a whistle can be a wonderful helper.

This bird whistle makes it fun to blow out sloooowly, emptying the lungs completely before taking the next deep breath.

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

• Makes your child perk up their ears and use their sense of hearing.
• Introduces your child to the world of music.
• Here, you can strengthen your child's understanding of language through play.

Measures 9,8 x 5,2 x 2,5 cm.
Suitable for ages 18 mos. to 4 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 are no rules dictating what your child should do. The goal is simply playing and being in the present moment. We at Toy Academy call this type of play intuitive play. It's also called "open ended play". Let your child play by using their intuition and seize the opportunity to watch how it unfolds.

Unlike types of play which are aimed at achieving a particular result, intuitive play will often let you have an interesting peek into your child’s independent imagination, thought process, and problem-solving skills.
