A multi-sensory play experience
The Spin-Ball offers appealing multi-sensory stimulation. The different "slices" are in a rainbow of colors to elicit a harmonious feeling, and to develop the ability to differentiate between colors. The mirrored internal side panels create interesting reflections. On the internal vertical axis, there is a two-sided smiling face. All this produces an interesting visual effect that stimulates baby's sense of sight. The moving parts emit a pleasant "klik-klak" sound, and the rotating face offers a soft rustling, to stimulate baby's sense of hearing. The texture, in the form of little bumps on the slices, invite baby to grasp and touch them, and to feel the difference between the rough external surface and the smooth internal surfaces.
Fine Motor Development
The Spin-Ball offers diverse opportunities for baby to practice fine motor skills and perfect hand-eye coordination, and the coordination between both his hands. Baby can hold the ball in one hand, move it and transfer it from one hand to the other. She can also move the segment slices back and forth, and toss the ball to the floor ?practicing her ability to release objects or roll them on the floor. As her ability to separate her fingers improves, she can play with the toy using more and more skills, such as leafing through the segment slices, or rotating the axis with the faces on it with one hand.
Cognitive Skills
The Spin-Balls unique and intriguing shape stimulates baby's curiosity and invites her to grasp and explore all the things she can do to manipulate it: elicit sound, roll it, move the segments from side to side and more.
Object Permanence
The Spin-Balls structure and shape are perfect for creating peek-a-boo games, by hiding and revealing the face and its parts. This helps baby develop a sense of the concept of object permanence.
6-9m
The Spin-Ball offers a wide variety of play options for the 6 to 9-month-old. She can grasp the toy, move it from hand to hand, and listen to the pleasant sounds it makes. This helps develop baby's fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and her understanding of cause and effect. On the floor, baby can roll the Spin-Ball forward and crawl to reach it. While playing, the internal face image appears and disappears, creating and inviting peek-a-boo-type games.
9-12m
Baby's developing control over her fingers and hands opens new and richer opportunities for play. She can ?and enjoys ?throwing the ball to the floor and looking at it as it rolls from side to side. The ability to separate her fingers allows her to grasp individual segments with two or three fingers and move the ball, move the segments from side to side and delight in the appearance and disappearance of the face inside ?or spin the internal axis and enjoy the reflections it creates in the mirrored sides.
12-24m
The toddler begins to relate to the different proportions of objects, as well as beginning to be familiar and relate to the colors and the toy's characteristics, such as its ability to spin. Her explorations are now in anticipation of specific feedback, and she enjoys the control she has over her play.
