I have selected 3 toys : 1.HEX BUGS CRAB , 2. STOMP ROCKET JUNIOR ,and 3. SQUIGZ , all of
which manufactures have deemed appropriate for children 3 to 5 years old.
1. Why is this toy developmentally appropriate for children this age group ?
The Hex Bug Crab is somewhat appropriate to children in this age group , its smaller size
is a good fit for smaller hands but not to small where it could become a choking hazard.
This toy would encourage small motor practice because of its size , also would
encourage gentle play ,and some small amounts …show more content…
The Stomp Rocket is age appropriate because it is a skilled down version of the Stomp
Rocket orginal toy for older children , it has a smaller size and a larger stomp pad ,
easier directions for a younger age group of children.
The Squigz toy is age appropriate for children 3 thru 5 , it is a good size for smaller
hands , but large enough to not be a choking problem play, encourages open ended play
, problem solving and imagination.
2. Why is this toy appealing to a child in this age group?
All of the toys are packaged very appealing , bright colors and bold print .
The Hex Bug would be appealing to any child who might be wanting a pet , and would
encourage quite play , gentleness , and pet ownership practice.
The Stomp Rocket would be appealing to a child in this age group , because the toy can
be used indoors or outdoors , can be played with alone or with multipule children .
The Squigz toy would be fun for a child in this age group because it has very bright
colors , easy to put together , has a fun poping sound when they are pulled apart , and
have multipule places to be played
