This is a mini version of one of our best sellers. We are introducing the mini size as a wonderful portable size suitable for in the bag & on the go! These are an engaging tool. This is a Magnetic Board promotes learning and creativity. It also builds fine motor and hand eye skills. We initially purchased for a pre & early primary years sensory and literacy support tool however we have found they are as popular for adults as for their kids! Use the magnetic stylus to 'lift' the magnetic balls up. To depress them just run your finger over them. Super sensory & fun as well as educational. Spare stylus's are available separately. Anoter way to use them is to turn them upsidedown and rub hand across the underside. This is a very calming sensory experience. When running your fingers over the little embedded balls it feels quite like popping bubble wrap... sooo satisfying. Also fun to tilt it almost upside down and allow the 'beads' to fall into the holes and rub your hands over it. It gives a different sensation to using it the other way. "Young and old this item is such a must. All of my clients love it regardless of age and sensory preferences. Working well to assist through challenging appointments or outings Angela P July 2023" Now these are fun! I bought two for my grandkids for Christmas and they absolutely loved them. They had a great time playing with these in between eating and hanging out with the family. Their mum reports that they're still popular with the boys a month later. Jan. 2025 Lisa D" Great for multi sensory literacy training. They’re a great tool for both break out tasks from homework or during therapy sessions , literacy & maths exercises, motor planning, and also super calming (like popping bubble wrap). The magnetic “pull” and the pushing when erasing provides input to the proprioceptive receptors in the muscles and joints of the hands. We love that the Magnetic Board comes with a storage handle for the pen to clip into. A sensible, practical design. The board has holes each containing a tiny (and secure) magnetic ball. When you pass the stylus across the top, the mini beads are drawn to the top creating your picture. Write your name, tracing shapes, playing noughts and crosses, practising letters or sight words, drawing your own freestyle pictures or just playing. When you’re finished or want to erase even one individual magnet, simply press down with your finger. The magnetic stylus promotes pencil grip. The end on the stylus is glued in place for added safety. SPARE stylus’s available separately if you misplace one. Listed separately. Materials : ABS & Iron, stylus has a secured (glued in) magnetic tip Suitable for 3yrs+
