A minute later the buttons get pushed through, then the buckle strap clicks, and the red shoelace goes over, under and into a lopsided bow that they are very proud of.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a Montessori style busy board in soft felt. It folds shut like a book with two carry handles and a space rocket cover, and opens flat to 45 by 28 centimetres. The middle panel holds the closures children meet on real clothes, and the pages around it cover the alphabet, the numbers one to five, colours and shapes, plus a clock face with hands that turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGetting dressed, rehearsed\u003c\/strong\u003e A metal zipper, buttons, snap fasteners, buckle straps and a real shoelace bow let toddlers practise the fiddly parts of dressing at their own pace.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEarly concepts in one fold\u003c\/strong\u003e An alphabet page, a counting page from one to five with dot groups, a colours page and a shapes page sit side by side.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA clock to explore\u003c\/strong\u003e The yellow clock face has movable hands for a first look at where the numbers go.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFolds and carries\u003c\/strong\u003e Two soft handles turn the closed board into a little bag, so it travels flat in a changing bag.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight felt\u003c\/strong\u003e The whole board is felt and weighs about 400 grams, easy for small hands to open and turn.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e parents and carers of toddlers and preschoolers working on fine motor skills, dressing independence and first letters, numbers, colours and shapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy It Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReal dressing is hard to practise on a wriggling body first thing in the morning.
