The ball rolls.......
Catter-bug-catter-bug.... Catter-bug-catter-bug...... Catter-bug-catter-bug....
Go Govind get the buggy! And the crawler super excitedly and with all his might reaches out for the ball. With a slight push, the buggy rolls again. The orange colour peg pops out touches the surface, the ball topples over it and violet peg is out touching the ground. That's how the Catterbug-buggy rolls on its own beats.
This easy to clutch and roll wooden toy is so attractive and engaging even for adults. Our play time becomes super fun with this ball. It makes me miss my childhood. I feel as if I have become a kid myself with my baby.
Baby gets fascinated by the bright yellow ball with 6 pegs that pop in and out as the ball is rolled on a surface. It keeps the little one engaged for hours at a time as he explores shapes, colours and discovers movement. The multi-coloured pegs enhance his tactical and visual stimulation, while rolling encourages crawling and walking. It is meant only for rolling as it is a sturdy natural wooden toy. It is made from alibizia wood and non-toxic paints and colours; so it is a baby safe toy. No worries even if the baby mouths it licks it or drools on it.
It makes the baby a curious and explorative self learner by triggering those neural synapses of the brain to develop a good scientific and logical thinking capacity.
And that too with the fun and innocence being intact.
It truly makes learning fun.
It triggers Curiosity - As the 6 colorful pegs in the bright yellow color ball pops in and out while rolling, the curiosity of the child increases, and they are engaged by the toy for a longer time.
It provides Sensory stimulus - This rolling peg ball has multi-colored pegs which help the baby to identify different colors. The rolling of the ball gives the baby a concept of movement, enhancing brain development, tactical and visual stimulation, thus developing their sensory skills.
It helps to develop Fine motor skills- Being easy to clutch and roll, this ball provides the perfect exercise for tiny hands and fingers. It develops hand-eye coordination, thereby helping to develop their fine motor skills.
It helps to develop Gross motor skills- The rolling of the peg ball encourages the baby to crawl and walk behind it, thereby enhancing their gross motor skills.
I totally love this yellow Catterbug-Buggy peg ball by Shumee. At Rs 475, this ball is worth every single penny.
A word of Caution- Once the baby’s arms and hands become strong enough to lift it and throw it, keep the ball away for some time until they understand the effect and pain of being hit. Initially they will throw it aimlessly and can't hit targets. The wooden ball is quiet sturdy such that if hits anybody with full force then it will definitely hurt. So, it can be taken out a few days later to teach colours to the baby.
