Natural Skwish
MTA Teachers Resource Catalogue Page: 823
Natural Skwish is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Engage your baby's senses from day one with the beautifully crafted Natural Skwish - a classic multi-sensory toy designed to encourage early motor development while nurturing curiosity and comfort. Suitable for newborns and babies from birth, this timeless wooden toy is both a rattle and teether, offering a safe and stimulating experience that supports visual, tactile, and auditory exploration.
Measuring 15.25 cm in diameter, the Skwish features smooth, sustainable wooden dowels and elastic cords that allow it to flatten and bounce back to its original shape - an endlessly fascinating feature for tiny hands. The sliding wooden beads provide gentle rattle sounds and promote fine motor development, while the open-frame design makes it easy to grasp, shake, and chew.
Free from dyes and finished with the smoothest natural materials, the Natural Skwish is safe for mouthing, ideal as a teether, and designed to withstand years of play. The Natural Skwish is a sensory-rich, safe, and stylish resource that invites babies to discover through movement and play - making it a cherished staple in any early learning space or nursery.
Educational Benefits:
- Develops gross motor skills such as grasping, reaching, and holding
- Supports fine motor development and visual tracking with moving beads
- Provides tactile and auditory stimulation through texture and sound
- Encourages cause-and-effect learning as babies manipulate the shape and hear the rattle
Classroom & Play Activity Ideas:
- Use during tummy time to encourage reaching and rolling
- Add to a sensory basket for exploration of movement and sound
- Pair with a mirror so babies can watch their hand movements as they play
- Incorporate into calming routines to soothe through gentle grasping and mouthing
Product Details:
- Ages: 0+ months (newborn)
