Jumbo Buttons | Busy Bag

The first time I let my kids play with buttons they were captivated! And they are still a favourite... There is just something about them that holds children’s attention. In this My Busy Bots bag we introduce numbers and counting in a fun way. Little ones need to find and cover the right amount of the items with the buttons - you can also encourage them to use small buttons on small items and large buttons on larger items! When they are done they can do some extra hand eye coordination and fine motor practice by threading the jumbo buttons on the colourful lace. This bag is suitable for little ones from 3+. As all children develop in their own time, this is a guideline and may vary with your child.
