Review on BUNMO Pop Tubes Sensory Toy by Adam Boesel

As a development professional, I look for toys that are educational and durable enough to withstand the repetitive play experiences they will encounter during my customers' daily and intensive use. This hose set has been tested. So far he has endured a month of therapeutic play sessions with 20 very active toddlers. These tubes seem to be more durable and of better quality than the tubes I'm used to. If the child does not bite, then with normal use it will last quite a long time. Also, a child can pull the hose multiple times, causing dents that an adult can correct. I highly recommend this item. Take care of your clothes properly. These hoses have helped me teach children the skills and activities they need to dress and undress themselves. Here's how I do it. Connect the ends of the pipes to form a circle, then lay it on the ground. (During this exercise, the tubes will expand as needed. If you are working with older children, you can always add another tube so that the circle forms two or even three tubes.) Have the child stand in the circle, bend down, peck up the hose and pull the hose up to your waist (pull up your pants). Then I let the child play with it until they can put the tube on their head (take off their shirt). You may need to be asked to pull out one arm first, and then the other. Depending on their ability to connect, I can put a tube on their head or just give it to them to put on their head. In this phase they learn to place one hand/hand in the circle and then the other hand/hand. (You may need to ask them to take turns doing this, holding the tube with their free hand.) At this point, they lower the tube to their waists and then to the floor. You just learned how to put on a shirt and pull down your pants. As well as dressing up, this is a great sensory toy with the sounds it makes and the feeling of feeling it. The child can make it turn. Because of the choking hazard of small objects, under adult supervision, demonstrate how small objects (popcorn kernels, dry rice, dry pinto beans) can fit through the tube. This is a very versatile toy. Your imagination can create limitless activities!
