Tactile Play
There’s so much more to the SOFT STORYBOOK than meets the eye. Pages that crinkle, buttons that squeak, shiny surfaces, different textures and attachments are found all through the pages to provide plenty of sensory stimulation for little ones! Young children first learn though sensory messages, so figuring things out through touch is important.

Fine Motor Skills
Discovering the textures, shapes, thickness and dimensions of the SOFT STORYBOOK and its pages is about more than just satisfying curiosity—it can help babies develop fine motor skills. Developing finger dexterity begins with little fingers exploring, manipulating and grasping. In slipping the squeaky doll in and out of the SOFT STORYBOOK pocket, little ones begin to learn to control their hands and refine finger movements. Turning the pages one by one may also teach the beginnings of “concepts of print”—that books run left to right. At a young age, children’s finger and hand movements are random. Over time, as fine motor skills improve, the hand and finger movements become more refined and purposeful. Fine motor skills are a necessary foundation for future tasks like picking up raisins, putting crayons into a box or gripping a spoon.

Basic Body concepts
Toys like the SOFT STORYBOOK that show facial and body features can help young children develop an awareness of basic body concepts. As babies figure out how to identify different parts of their bodies and their purpose, they begin to form overall body awareness. Recognizing faces, whether it be their own or others, helps baby learn about faces, what faces have in the way of parts and how they are the same and different.
