The Toddler Seat is a truly unique swing invention that makes it possible for toddlers to swing before they fully master the cross-coordination skills that conventional swinging takes. When seated, the toddler can push and pull the front chains and thus set the seat in motion. This is a fabulous event for toddlers, who have a strong drive to do things on their own, but often need help. The feeling of independence is priceless to young toddlers and it boosts their self-confidence. Apart from being great fun, swinging on the Toddler Seat trains important gross motor skills such as the sense of balance when seated but moving. Additionally, it is a good way of training muscles as the trunk stability and pushing and pulling with arms all take some force. A truly socio-emotional as well as a physically stimulating swing seat.
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.
the seated position supports trunk stability and balance when pushing and pulling the front chains.
the supportive carved hole for the legs provides a feeling of security when seated. The opening facilitates lifting the child into and out of seat.
pushing and pulling chains requires coordination and trains muscles.
the insight that the child can affect motion with body movements strengthens logical thinking and the understanding of 'cause and effect'.
