Description
Spin Toy
This spin toys allows excess energy to be expelled helping to calm and relieve kids by meeting their sensory needs. Supports sensory seekers with active movement, stimulating the visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive senses. The 360 degree tilting rotation can have a comforting effect through spinning. The movement stimulates the imagination, improves balance and coordination. The 4-way balance; front to back and side to side improves balance, posture, coordination, and cognitive development. Wobble and spin to provide vestibular input. Made of strong thick plastic with 2 integrated foam rubber covered steel handles. Measures 22″ x 18″ x 8″ (56x46x20cm). Maximum Weight: 300 lbs (136 kg).
1. Improved Balance and Coordination
The act of sitting and spinning helps children develop better balance and coordination. As the toy spins, they need to engage their core muscles to stay centered and balanced, which enhances proprioception (awareness of body position) and overall coordination.
2. Vestibular System Stimulation
The spinning motion stimulates the vestibular system, which is responsible for our sense of balance and spatial orientation. Regular use of a sit and spin toy helps strengthen this system, contributing to better balance, posture, and movement control.
3. Sensory Integration
Sit and spin toys can support sensory integration, especially for children who need to process and respond to sensory input effectively. The spinning motion provides both visual and physical stimulation, helping kids integrate and respond to the sensory information more effectively.
4. Muscle Strengthening
While spinning, children often engage their leg, abdominal, and back muscles to maintain control. This strengthens core and leg muscles, contributing to overall muscle development and physical fitness.
5. Stress Relief and Fun
Similar to other spinning toys, the motion of a sit and spin can be calming and fun. For children, it can provide a stress-relieving, enjoyable experience that helps to burn off excess energy or focus their attention in a playful way.
6. Gross Motor Skills Development
Sitting and spinning requires gross motor skills, such as body awareness, large muscle movements, and coordination between the arms and legs. These skills are crucial for everyday tasks and activities, especially in the early developmental stages.
7. Social and Cooperative Play
When used in a group setting, sit and spin toys can encourage social play, teamwork, and sharing. Kids can take turns using the toy or even push it for each other, promoting social interaction and cooperation.
8. Confidence and Independence
As children master the ability to spin and control the motion, they gain a sense of accomplishment, which boosts their self-esteem. It can also encourage independent play and exploration as they learn to manage their movements.
