BRAIN BOX MY FIRST PICTURE R150

An outstanding visual memory game. Take a look the picture side of the card until the timer runs out. Throw the dice and answer the question with the corresponding number on the back of the card. You have to remember what you saw in order to answer the question, eg. how many teddy bears were in the picture, or what colour was the ball? 10 – 15 minutes a game depending on the number of players.

FILO R250

This light as a feather, beautifully and practically packaged eye-hand co-ordination acitivity will have your child engrossed for ages. Under the age of 7 your child will just doodle, pushing the ‘pen’ which is filled with a lace, into the ‘holes’ on the rubbery board. The holes trap the lace with no knotting required and voila, you are on your way to making a picture. Comes with 18 double-sided pattern cards for older children as well as a complete booklet with even more complex patterns and pictures to copy. Copying one of these pictures requires counting and spatial planning – a brilliant mathematical activity that also stimulates all the eye-hand and fine-motor co-ordination skills for good reading and writing. Creating pictures with Filo exercises the tripod grip for handwriting and gives fabulous proprioceptive feedback to the brain via the muscles and joints. “How hard do I need to push?” A very soothing and creative activity. Great for travel, the size of an A4 pageand 5cm deep. All the ‘pens’, laces and pattern cards are stored in the plastic, basket-like container with a clip on rubber mat. Size 30cm x 22cm x 4cm.
