Air Toobz Evo

My son needs assistance with builds that are more complex but loves the shooting out of the balls. But he loves lights, so balls that light up would be over the top for him, and he would be so excited to play with this in dim lighting with that option.

This toy really appeals to the sensory aspect of the Spectrum. While nonverbal, he was excited about the toy and what it could do. It also challenged him to correct pathways.

Provided numerous options for play / versatile toy, the air was a sensory fulfillment. Kept child occupied and also encourages interaction with others “play with me”!

My 2.5 year old little boy has a sensory processing disorder and a speech delay. He currently attends speech for 30 minutes three times a week and OT twice a week for an hour each session. This toy is wonderful for a kiddo who is trying to make waves like our little guy!! Putting the set together: At 2.5 years old he does require the help from big brother or a parent. It’s teaching him to slow down and assess how to create the tube track. He’s working on teamwork with whoever he is putting it together with and most importantly he is using language development. Even simple words like “tube here” and “next tube” is encouraging him to use words and start to string words together. It may sound silly, but it gives us a different avenue of an activity he wants to do with us which enables us to work on words together without him realizing we’re “working” on speech. Speech while playing: He LOVES to yell with excitement while using this set. “Going fast”, “high up”, “ball pop”, “go ball”, “hurry fast”. He is working so so very much on speech while using the air toobz set! Physical activity: SO IMPORTANT for us!! Teddy is an input seeking child. While playing with air toobz he’s running and tracking the balls. He is jumping when they pop then runs fast to get the balls he didn’t catch. We’ve even started pairing it with our nugget couch so they jump (and crash!) when the ball is about to pop up while trying to catch the ball. It puts such a fun spin on our normal activity and it creates the input my two years old needs. I could go on with the possibilities of how your kiddo can use this, but also just how excited our kids get to play with it. There’s been many mornings where it’s the first thing they ask when they wake up!!

Air Toobz is great for helping my daughter with her fine motor skills, cognitive understanding of cause and effect, as well as her gross motor skills (standing up to put the ball in tubes, crouching down to pick up balls, crawling around to collect the balls).
