Providing children with truly open ended materials helps them develop creativity, independence, learn to take risks, develop language and problem solving skills.
Also called Tinker Trays, these materials can be a great jumping off point for other skill development, especially in older children. Once they create something with the pieces from the tray, you can ask them to tell you about what they've made or what worked or didn't work while they were building. You could even have them draw and write about their work.
The following rainbow loose parts will inspire your child:
*1 divided six compartment tray measuring 12 inches x 9 inches. The box has a clear sliding lid which will keep all of pieces safe, and make cleaning up a breeze.
*7 wooden bowls, each bowl measures 2 1/2 x 1 1/8 inches.
*7 little people who measure 1 1/4 inches tall
*7 mini flower pots that are approximately 5/8 inches tall
*7 mini acorns also measuring about 5/8 inches.
*7 tiny apples that are 7/8 of an inch tall
*7 7/8 inch mushrooms
*7 mini 1 1/4 inch plates
*14 big colored popsicle sticks
*14 skinny colored popsicle sticks
*21 small felt balls- 3 each of 7 different colors
*1 scoop
*1 tong
All pieces are painted with non toxic acrylic paint with a durable satin finish so they can withstand hours of play.
Due to the small nature of these pieces and the fine motor skill required to manipulate them, this tray is not intended for children under the age of 3.
All items meet CPSC safety requirements so you can be confident that you are providing a safe item for your child to play with.
At Wonder’s Journey we know parents just want to raise independent kids who will grow into successful adults. But with all the toys and electronics on the market today, it can be almost impossible to know which ones help or hinder your child’s development, increasing frustration and leading to parent guilt.
That’s why we make toys that give kids the opportunity to be imaginative, flexible thinkers, so they can grow up to be the next generation of innovators and leaders.
Thoughtfully designed open ended toys that are screen free, make parents feel confident in their toy choices, and ultimately their parenting skills.
Given the right play opportunities, all kids develop to their fullest potential.
