Why We Love It
An a-MAZE-ing sensory tool for beginning writers! Use the magnetic pen to slide the circles along the different types of lines to practice pre-writing skills. Kids will develop their tripod pencil grasp as they hold the magnetic pen and practice grading movement as they apply gentle pressure to move the circular magnets across the gel. A great way to encourage early writing skills in kids who struggle with bilateral coordination and crossing the midline. The gel maze features beloved Fun and Function friends, like our Sloth Heavy Hugger, Harry the Sensory Hedgehog, and familiar chewies like our Calming Leaf Chewy and the Rock Chewy. This is a fun pre-writing tool that can be used endlessly, thanks to the adorable design and wipe clean surface.
- Helps promote bilateral coordination and crossing midline

- Made by Fun and Function
