Baby bottle holder – slide this on over the bottle so the baby can learn to hold their own bottle.  This gadget can be good for little ones that have gross motor delays, fine motor delays, and general difficulties with bringing hands to the middle (midline) to hold things.

Bee to Hive Matching Game on Amazon

Cute game! I wouldn’t use with little ones that are still putting toys/items in their mouth.  . . the bees are still a little too small for my comfort with those kiddos!

But, it is a cute toy with good opportunities to work on fine motor, cognitive, social, and language skills.  The tongs work well, but can be a little difficult to pick up the bees for kiddos who are just learning how to use tongs.

Globbles on Amazon

These Globbles are an interesting Tactile Sensory Processing item! They are very sticky, and even stick to each other well!  Kids can squeeze, poke, smash them and experience a unique type of texture when using them!  For smaller kids, use with caution and/or adult supervision.
