Say hello to Hoot the Fine Motor Owl - a delightful early learning companion that helps toddlers and preschoolers build the essential fine motor skills needed for everyday tasks. With four interactive activities packed into one engaging toy, Hoot supports development in hand strength, coordination, and pincer grip, all while sparking curiosity and imaginative play. Designed for children aged 18+ months, Hoot is both fun and functional, making it an ideal addition to early years learning spaces.

Children can spin Hoot's eyes to practice pincer grip, squeeze his squeaky nose to build hand strength, drop colourful coins into his slot to enhance hand-eye coordination, and flap his wings to release the coins - boosting bilateral control and scissor-like movements. Each coin also introduces basic concepts in colour, shape, and number recognition, adding a gentle cognitive challenge to this tactile play experience.

Includes: 1 owl with interactive features (spinning eyes, squeaky nose, flapping wings) and 4 colourful coins
