SPIKE THE FINE MOTOR HEDGEHOG

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great toy for developing fine motor skills I bought this toy for my 2-year-old, and they loved it right away. The pieces are colorful, easy to hold, and safe for little hands. It helps practice hand-eye coordination as they place the “spikes” into the hedgehog’s holes. Plus, all the pieces store neatly inside the toy, which makes cleanup super easy. The material feels sturdy and well-made. It’s a wonderful way to encourage learning through play, especially for toddlers developing fine motor skills. Highly

Colorful, well-made, and an easy but brain powering activity. This was a Christmas gift for a 16mo old and they LOVE it! It’s easy for them to play by themselves but entertaining/challenging enough that it’s an easy 10+ minute activity every time. The back easily comes off for storage of the pins. The back snaps on fairly good so you could throw this in a toy bag to take in the car without losing any pieces. So far it’s been super easy to clean and wipe down. Doesn’t require any assembly or batteries! It also makes ZERO NOISE! Would absolutely buy / gift to babies or 1 year of age.

My toddler loves this toy. Plays with it often in different ways. We count. Do colors and patterns. Great for hand coordination. Love you can store prices inside shell.

Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog has been a delightful addition to our home, providing not only fun but also educational value for my little one. This toy is brilliantly designed to foster fine motor skills development, and it’s wonderful to see my child’s hand muscles strengthen as they play. The chunky, peg-shaped quills are perfect for small hands to grasp, making it an excellent toy for both toddlers and preschoolers. The vibrant colors of the quills are not just appealing; they serve as a fantastic tool for teaching color recognition, sorting, and counting. It’s been amazing to watch my child arrange the quills by warm or cool colors, create sequences and patterns, and count them as they play. Another aspect I appreciate about Spike is its use in occupational therapy exercises. It’s a great resource for parents and therapists looking for engaging ways to improve fine motor skills in children. Additionally, its suitability for visually impaired children highlights its inclusive design. Storage is a breeze with this toy. After playtime, the quills fit snugly inside the hedgehog’s body, making clean-up easy and keeping all pieces secure and organized. The plastic material is easy to clean, which is a must for any toy in a busy household. In conclusion, Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog is more than just a toy; it’s a valuable educational tool that aids in the development of crucial skills while ensuring hours of fun. Its thoughtful design, educational benefits, and ease of storage make it a top choice for any parent looking to enrich their child’s playtime.

This Hedgehog was a great addition for my 15 month old granddaughter. She plays with this everyday. I questioned its quality at first glance. The spikes look cheap. (4 stars) But it has held up. It’s durable, baby proof and was a great price. Learning Resources is known for reliably delivering great toys that are not only educational and engaging, but also durable, well-made, and affordable. I recommend and will buy again.

My child loves this toy! It is great for fine motor skills. You can take the shell off and store the pieces in it so they won’t all get lost. It is the perfect size, not too bulky. My one year-old is able to easily manipulate the pieces.

My son is loving this toy, he is 21 months currently. It’s the perfect amount of challenge for him but it’s also doable and he has fun doing it. It is a very good quality and durable toy. I like that you can store the spikes inside, making it portable and also easy to store and clean up. The spikes themselves have little grips on the end that make it easy for their little hands to grab. I’m happy I found a toy my son actually likes as they are always a hit or miss!

Great but I’d say should be 15 month+ don’t wait until 18 month! Glad I gave it to my daughter early. The first time she used it clueless but she learned very quickly how to do it around 15 months! And it provided good entertainment.

I bought this for baby grandson when he was 10 months old. He could just about place one of the spikes. Four months on he still loves it. He has not got the concentration to fit all of the spikes but it is good for hand eye coordination. We play feeding the hedgehog and the spikes have been used as pretend characters when he is playing with his vehicles. You can store the spikes in the toy so that the spikes don’t get lost. Nice quality plastic.

Surprisingly good value for money. Lots of skills to build and schemas to support in a single toy - fine motor, sorting/colour/pattern recognition, memory, counting, transporting. Makes for a perfect gift!

Mi hijo es difícil de mantenerlo concentrado y con Spike se mantiene entretenido un buen rato, muy buena calidad del juguete y excelente para trabajar motricidad fina, contar, aprender colores, etc.

Dzieci zadowolone:-)

Highly recommend for toddlers and preschoolers!
