Sensory Exploration Made Fun and Easy With Dimpl By Fat Brain Toys!

Posted on February 28, 2019 by Lubica Misevski

 

During baby's first year, your child needs ample opportunity to explore and engage with the world around them. Everyday exposure to the outdoors, inside your own home, and places such as the zoo, the park, and even the grocery store are excellent chances for you to introduce stimuli and keep your baby interested.

In recent years, studies have shown an increasingly important need for independent play and exploration amongst babies and toddlers. Babies need to be given plenty of time to entertain themselves in order to thrive as they grow into toddlerhood, school-age, adulthood, and beyond. Independent play can be established by leaving your baby in a large, baby-proofed space, or by giving them different toys with no guidance so they have the chance to use toys in a way that keeps them engaged and appeals to them.

That's where Fat Brain Toys comes in, to give parents a break and give babies the opportunity to learn and explore on their own!

Introducing Dimpl, a colourful, playful toy that allows your baby freedom to play to their heart's content. A sturdy ABS plastic frame houses five silicone bubbles, bursting with colour and texture. Watch as your child flips the disk over again and again, going back and forth from side to side, comprehending what is going on and what is going to happen next. Simple, repetitive activities help to stimulate your child's brain and foster creativity and confidence whilst playing singularly and with other children.

Dimpl is made of safe, BPA-free plastic and food-grade silicone, allowing you to leave baby (6 months and older) to play without your facilitation. Fat Brain Toys prides itself on creating the Dimpl, not only does it allow your baby to flex his or her independence, but it also delivers a one-of-a-kind sensory experience! Let your child explore the smooth texture under his or her hands as the toy switched from hills and valleys of silky silicone to flat, smooth plastic. Because the plastic is one piece and the silicone is food-grade, your child can safely put it in their mouth without the worry of pieces dislodging and becoming a choking hazard. Bright colours will stimulate your child's senses and keep their attention captured, allowing Mum or Dad a break and some needed peace and quiet.

Ready to make some music? The plastic body sounds different tapping on various surfaces. Show your little one how by gently tapping on the wood floor, then switching to your countertop or wall. The varying pitches will be music to their ears while exciting his or her senses.

As if the Dimpl didn't offer enough educational fun already, it also aims to work your baby's fine motor skills. Fine motor skills are the small movements of coordination that utilise wrists, hands, fingers, feet, and toes. Give your baby's chubby hands and scrumptious fingers a physical (and mental!) workout by showing them to apply light pressure to indent the bubbles, then apply a little bit more pressure. Ask your baby, "what happened?" With a little bit of force, the bubbles will pop to the other side, delighting your baby and teaching a simple lesson on cause and effect. Your baby will giggle with delight as the silicone puts up resistance when his or her tiny fingers press on it and glide over it.

With all the toys floating around the market, targeted at babies, it's more important than ever that the objects of play we give our children stimulate their mind, engage their senses, and hold their attention. Fat Brain Toys aims to please both parents and children alike with their one-of-a-kind design. Made with baby's safety and education in mind, you'll be hard-pressed to find a toy like the Dimpl!
