Hasbro
Hasbro, 2007
Great toy - and great OT for hands!
Two of my kids receive OT for their hands and fine motor skills. As they are getting older (4 and 7), it's hard get them to do some of the suggested activities. This is great. They play with it for over an hour at a stretch. The goo cleans up easily - I haven't had ...

Melissa & Doug Deluxe Easel Paper (3 pack bundle)
Melissa and Doug
Melissa and Doug, 2006
Very sturdy paper
This paper can withstand quite a bit. I just wish I could find it in stores instead of ordering it, but oh well. I would recommend this paper and have recommended Amazon since this is the only place that sells it the cheapest.

Great for hand skills
I am a pediatric occupational therapist and I love this for my students. Helps facilitate a good wrist position, which in turn helps facilitate a good grasp. I use this with little pieces of q tips and cotton balls too.

I got this for my 11 year old daughter and was thrilled. I was worried it might be too "young" for her but, I found the stamps perfect for any age! I think she is going to really enjoy decorating notes and such as the stamps are varied and good for children to adults.

Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden Stringing Beads with over 200 beads
Melissa and Doug
Melissa and Doug, 2006
Beads without aggravation
The beads are just the right size for little hands, the box is great for storing the beads and string, and there is friction between the wood beads and the round-shoelace-type string so the beads stay on the string. This is a great toy. The box is less than an inch ...

Hover N' Spin Art by Mega Brands
Mega Brands
Mega Brands, 2007
Flawed concept - it just doesn't spin well at all.
It's a cool concept - the paper rides on a tray with air holes all oriented the same way so the fan's powerful wind makes the paper hover in the air and spin effortlessly while you drip the paint on. Unfortunately turbulence kicks in and makes the air tray wobble. ...
