The Sassy Fruit Fill n' Spill features textured fruit. Learn the shape and color of each fruit and fill the container to let the contents spill out. Filling and spilling is a developmentally appropriate activity for babies, helping them practice their fine motor skills. As babies grow, use the lid to challenge them to push the fruit through the rubber bands. The fruits are textured and soft, so babies can put them in their mouths and explore them with their sense of touch.
Play at any level!
-
6+ months: Remove the top of the fruit basket. Babies love to put fruit in, pop it out, and repeat over and over. This helps the baby to develop important brain connections through repetition.
-
9+ months: Put the lid on the container. The baby can put the shapes through the elastic straps. This activity helps develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Just like filling and spilling, the baby will repeat this action and thus develop new brain connections.
-
12+ months: As baby threads the shapes through the rubber bands, adults can name each fruit and recognize the different colors. Repetition helps the baby learn.
-
After practicing a few times, adults should ask the baby, "Where is the red one?" or "Can you find the lemon?"
