Gotta Hug Those Bugs in a Jug

Hours of creepy-crawly fun await as toddlers age 18 months and up delight in removing the soft, plush spider, butterfly, ladybug and grasshopper from the child safe “jug” and then putting them back in again! Manipulating these critters is even more pleasurable because each one has a distinctive sound, jingling, squeaking, rattling, or crinkling, just for giggles! The “jug” has a mesh top attached both to add to the play and manipulation activities and to keep the collection together when the bugs go back in. This toy is great for fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. It helps build the hand muscles of the little as they push and pull to remove the bugs and put them back in. Younger kids can even start off with the bugs half in or out. The bugs are also a great sensory item all by themselves. Besides their vibrant design, their varied sounds really appeal to young kids and keep them coming back for more. The container is green see-through plastic which the kids love to look through as well. The bugs themselves awaken kids’ curiosity with their different colors, shapes, textures, and sounds. These ultra-soft and light-weight materials also make this a great toy for travel, so wherever the little ones venture, the buggies will keep them company!
