Munchkin Bobble Bee

Have you ever gone out to eat with an infant who is grabby? Who wants to see the utensils, the napkins, the condiments, the salt and pepper and your phone?

What that's just my kids well OK then.

Well lets say hypothetically your child dose this, one of the toys I do really like instead of the phone is this Bee, Baby girl loves her Bee she plays with in her high chair as well as on the floor. Batting at it, rattling it,  and chewing on it.  

We have used it in several therapy sessions as a distraction when she is upset during PT, or OT, and as a toy she will move to, to investigate.  While it's not my favorite toy for teaching cause and effect It is a good one for that lesson. The wing on the right side helps with the beginning of fine motor dexterity, and the slight rattle on the wing on the left side is enough to distract most children.  Also the fact that it doesn't require batteries is a plus for us as we do use it outside of the house. And no annoying buzzing beeping. Two thumps up.

Munchkin Bobble Bee is available on Amazon for $8.49, Albee Baby for $9.99 and  Diapers. Con for $10.79.

As always if you have any thoughts, comments, or concerns please post in the comments  and Please send me any of your thoughts on or about  the toys you love for special needs kids, teen, and adults as well as typical kids.

Duckie,one of my fav toys.

a

When people ask me how I chose which toys I give to children and why  I tell them I try to zone into what the child needs or wants and go from there. And most things can be a child's toy.  For example If a child likes to crinkle things I will get them every type of paper I can get my hands on to work on motor control.

In the case of this duck,  my darling Baby Girl like many children with sensory issues likes consent vibration. It calms her, and distracts her, whether we're at the doctor, or  PT which like most infants she doesn't love.

Knowing this thought where can I get a toy that vibrates constantly, as she get even more upset when she's calming down and vibrating stops. I looked online and found some great toys however nothing quite, what I was looking for.
I thought why can't I place a small motor inside one or her toys to make it move, that idea warped into "why not but a cheap vibrator and sew it inside a stuff animal". I have been off doing just this when at the "toy" store the lovely young lady who was helping me ( I had to explain this was for a child with sensory issues)  pointed out this toy to me, "its water proof as its supposed to be used in the bath and it looks like a child's toy so it should do the trick" she said with a grin.
Baby Girl loves Ducky, we take it with us to every doctors visit, PT session, OT session and long trip. It calms her down during some of her BAD melt downs. And entertains her when she's just crawling around.

  Ducky  takes 1 AAA battery and lasts for about a week of constant use. 
The product is called---Travel-Size, I Rub My Duckie  
Simply enter that into your search engines and you can avoid the porn sites, and raunchy adds.  
 Both  Walgreens.com and Amazon have it for $12.69
Also for an extra bonus the duck fits nicely inside A Sleep sheep if you take the sound box out, then you will have that soft vibrating toy I was originally after.
