Wee Gallery sensory Clutch Ball toy is designed to delight your baby's developing senses. Signature high-contrast hand painted graphics grab baby's attention visually, while varied textures provide tactile stimulation. Its beautiful organic shell fabrics and Nordic pattern make it the perfect keepsake gift.
Also called an "Amish puzzle ball", it was popularized by Montessori educators. Our balls do not come apart, so are not actually a puzzle, but your baby will examine it as if it were a puzzle. Sensory Clutch
Balls are used in many ways with babies from 3 months of age - attach a strap and hang above your baby from 3 months of age to promote kicking.
At about 5 months your baby will begin to move the ball with her hands and begin to try and clutch it. The segments make it easier for a baby to clutch than a regular ball. And when it drops, it won't roll far. It's the perfect first ball for babies, and is a popular favorite baby toy.
Made of: 100% Organic Cotton fabric Oeko-Tex polyester fill
Care Instructions: Surface clean only
BABY VISUAL DEVELOPMENT
Before a baby learns to reach and grab with their hands or crawl and sit-up, their eyes are providing important information and stimulation for their development. A baby's brain undergoes an amazing period of development from birth to three — producing more than a million neural connections each second. High-contrast imagery offers the best opportunity for newborns to focus on visual stimuli and promotes visual exploration and engagement.
More than just entertainment, visual focus on a stimulus such as art cards can foster a sense of calm and coherence in visually busy spaces. A card placed over a diapering area can be used to redirect attention of wiggly infants, making diaper time a little easier on parents and caregivers. Furthermore, intriguing imagery invites commentary and conversation, encouraging adults to engage more with baby.
0 - 3 MONTHS
Early on, baby cannot see color well, but black and white patterns and distinct edges will engage young eyes and help them focus.
6 - 9 MONTHS
Edges and patterns begin to take shape as a complete image emerges — revealing an exciting new pal.
9-12 MONTHS
Depth perception is developing and dexterity begins to improve. Good luck getting these out of baby's hands now!
