Great Toy

This is such an adorable and educational product for babies and beyond. I love that the company fit so many activities, on this small sized easy to transport item. I am going to go through each side of the cube and discuss its educational benefits from a therapeutic standpoint. Firstly, the shape sorter side and ABC sorter side are both great introductions to beginning to recognize shapes and alphabet letters. The child is better able to recall the shapes and letters because of the effort and motor memory they are putting forth, by having to figure out how to insert and orient the pieces in their correct holes. Further, it addresses spatial relations as the child has to figure out how to orient the pieces so they can be inserted in the correct slots. I am enjoying that there are only 4 slots for the shapes and ABC sections as it makes it a more just right challenge for the children, lending for less room for error. *The rattle side is great for both those that need the visual input as well as the auditory feedback to calm down or became more alert. *The rotating gears are a great first fine motor activity, I like that it requires limited resistance to turn the spinners, with immediate feedback. Lastly, the gliding shapes assist the child with moving their hand in a vertical plane, hopefully helping the early learners with pre-writing strokes. <br />

So many ways for baby to work learn cause and effect!

This cube is really cool! As a cube does, it has 6 sides each with something different for your little one to explore. This cube is great for youngsters as it promotes exploration and an understanding of cause and effect as well as beginning problem solving. I have decided that the best way to review this cube is to list each side of the cube so that parents really get an understanding of the benefits of this toy!<br /> <br /> Side 1: Cut outs about the size of the circle your fingers make if you put your thumb and pointer fingers together with the letters "A", "B", "C", and "D". Included are the letters that the child can learn to stick through the appropriate fitting hole.<br /> <br /> Side 2: Same thing as the first side except with the shapes: heart, triangle, circle, and heart. Great for learning basic shapes.<br /> <br /> Side 3: Gears that a baby can learn to twist. They also make a sort of ginding noise from twisting the plastic which my son loves!<br /> <br /> Side 4: Three shapes (a diamond, triangle, and cresent moon) that can be moved from one side to the other with a bit of force. They make a sort of grinding noise as well.<br /> <br /> Side 5: Tiny balls with a clear plastic cover that roll around a spiral background. This was the first side my son figured out as it was the easiest for him to learn. Move the cube and the balls roll all around!<br /> <br /> Side 6: A rubber storage cover where you can place the cut out letters and shapes. My son is still trying to understand this and the texture of the rubber throws him off but I am eager to see how long it takes for him to figure out that if he reaches in there, he can get the shapes and letters!
