Great for my 13 month old
Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog has been a delightful addition to our home, providing not only fun but also educational value for my little one. This toy is brilliantly designed to foster fine motor skills development, and it’s wonderful to see my child’s hand muscles strengthen as they play.The chunky, peg-shaped quills are perfect for small hands to grasp, making it an excellent toy for both toddlers and preschoolers. The vibrant colors of the quills are not just appealing; they serve as a fantastic tool for teaching color recognition, sorting, and counting. It’s been amazing to watch my child arrange the quills by warm or cool colors, create sequences and patterns, and count them as they play.Another aspect I appreciate about Spike is its use in occupational therapy exercises. It’s a great resource for parents and therapists looking for engaging ways to improve fine motor skills in children. Additionally, its suitability for visually impaired children highlights its inclusive design.Storage is a breeze with this toy. After playtime, the quills fit snugly inside the hedgehog’s body, making clean-up easy and keeping all pieces secure and organized. The plastic material is easy to clean, which is a must for any toy in a busy household.In conclusion, Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog is more than just a toy; it’s a valuable educational tool that aids in the development of crucial skills while ensuring hours of fun. Its thoughtful design, educational benefits, and ease of storage make it a top choice for any parent looking to enrich their child’s playtime.

Cute, occupies toddler
My daughter just turned 18 months and she seems to really like this toy. She likes the bright colors for sure. The reason I gave Mr. Spike 4 instead of 5 stars is because the bottom of the toy does not stay in place. They should have put rubber or something on the feet. Since my LO is new to fine motor, it was hard for her to put the spikes in the holes on the sides and in the back because the toy just slid all over the floor. Even with a mat, somehow it still slid. I had some mini non-slide furniture pads already so I put one on each foot and now she's using it more properly and it's not sliding aroundIf you have carpet maybe that wouldn't be an issue, but we don't. Overall good toy and quality material for the price 👌

Perfect product for perfect price
We first came across this toy at my daughter’s daycare and she absolutely loves it. It’s perfect for little ones. It helps them work on their fine motor skills which I appreciate. It is so worth the price and I will definitely will be looking at other products this brand has.On another note my daughter has lost a spike and I’m going nuts. I like how they have easy support access for these type of needs.
