Discovery Toys $30 Gift Certificate Giveaway! 12/10 **CLOSED!!**

***CLOSED!!!***



 Discovery Toys  sent Locomotion of Expressions a Hammer Away! They want to give a reader a chance to win their own toy from the website. I highly recommend the winner to pick the same toy I received. But they have a lot to choose from! Their site makes it easy to shop with them by organizing the toys by age/developmental stage. They also accept Paypal!


Reasons to like the Hammer Away! ( $36.50 )
  • From 19m - preschool.
  • The Hammer Away is a big sturdy durable toy!
  • Enjoy imaginative play;
  • Strengthen fine and gross motor coordination;
  • Experience cause and effect and object permanence, with balls disappearing and reappearing on the track;
  • Identify and match colors;
  • Develop critical thinking skills;
  • Release energy in a positive way;
  • Can first use your hands to push the balls through and then as you develop, use the hammer;
  • Distinguishing blue from purple ball helps refine color differentiation!
  • Strengthen fine and gross motor coordination.
  • Experience cause and effect and object permanence, with balls disappearing and reappearing on the track.
  • Identify and match colors.
  • Develop critical thinking skills.
  • Your child can get a bang out of learning with our "now you see it, now you don't" action toy. Hammer Away! builds hand-eye coordination and experience with object permanence, color-matching, and cause-and-effect concepts.

Discovery Toys for Children with Autism

Courtesy Discovery Toys
Together with the Princeton Child Development Institute, Discovery Toys created a list of products appropriate for children with autism. Their list of toys includes toys to develop independent play with some limited instruction; toys that create opportunities for children to talk about their play experience; toys that promote sustained engagement; toys with obvious completion criteria; toys that build skills for cooperative play; and toys that encourage pretend play. All of these are issues that parents of children with autism need to address, so it's likely that a toy in this list will be very welcome indeed.





Discovery Toys Independent Consultant's website is www.toyboxideas.comHeather Weiss 
Discovery Toys Independent Educational Consultant ID#WEI770 
The winner will shop at www.toyboxideashopathome.com her personal site for the winner to use a coupon for $30.00 off!!!
