Publisher's Description of Playfoam Shape & Learn Pete the Cat Groovin' Alphabet
It’s a letter learning kids can feel with squishy, squashy Playfoam and New York Times’ Best Seller Pete the Cat! Shape eight colorful bricks of Playfoam to match the letters shown on 13 double-sided Pete the Cat alphabet sculpt-me cards for sensory stimulating, hands-on practice with letter formation. Playfoam is kid-safe, non-toxic, and never dries out.
Playfoam is useful for all kinds of children, however, it is particularly helpful for visual and tactile learners. The foam is similar to traditional playdough, but it doesn't dry out, smell or stain fabric. This resource is easy to handle and fun to use. The idea is to create shapes and numbers with the foam to help learning come to life. The foam helps to promote Muscle Memory, hand eye coordination, and problem-solving skills. The foam comes in several cute mellow colors, and is semi-sticky and will pick up small foreign objects like dust and crumbs. Within the set there are 13 double-sided laminated cards with fun shapes and numbers on them. Playfoam is great for children who experience learning challenges. ~Kyce
