Handhold
Physical
opens more hold positions and ensures good grip, necessary for rocking intensely which trains hand and arm muscles.
The Bee Springer has rich tactile elements and is an appealing shape. Children can rock alone or two together with the rocking movement attracting children again and again, for shorter or longer rides. Apart from its charming appearance, the Bee Springer has a tactile variation with its rubber wings, wooden body, and stainless steel hand and footholds. Tactile variation for younger children supports their understanding of material characteristics such as weight, smoothness, temperature, flexibility, and learning which is important in risk management. The soothing, rocking movements of the bee teach spatial awareness and sense of balance, both crucial for body confidence, e.g. in avoiding falls.

Play Value
Play value is the value gained from play, the value that makes the child 'want' or developmentally 'need' to undertake the activity and thus gives the play item holding power. Play value can be described very precisely in developmental terms, looking into the human physical, cognitive, social and emotional developmental stages.
Foot support
Physical
the footrest supports intensive rocking, which stimulates the senses of balance and space, fundamental for managing the world securely.
Theme
Cognitive
suggests a theme and supports dramatic play, which stimulates language and communication skills.
Rocking spring
Physical
response to movements adds to spatial awareness and sense of balance which are fundamental motor skills.
Cognitive
trains the understanding of cause and effect: when I move my body, the spring responds with movement.
