    Big Future Toys Magnetic Earth Tiles

    The Latch Board from Big Future Toys is an eco-friendly, wooden Montessori game that includes a latch board with 3 coloured doors, a wooden circle, triangle and square, as well as a wooden board stand.

    Post the shapes into the slots, let them drop down behind the doors, then unlock each of the fastenings to retrieve the shapes. A simple concept that is amazing for developing children's fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and problem solving.

    This game board uses sustainably certified wood and features a natural wood finish, with the three doors and shapes painted in vibrant primary colours. Each of the wood pieces use non-toxic finishes that are safe for children's hands and mouths. Big Future have used thick cut wood and high quality hinges for added durability and a smooth opening motion that is very easy for young children to move.

    In addition to this, the Latch Board has an added handle that allows children to easily carry the toy with them wherever they go. This makes it a lovely toy in the car or on long journeys to keep your little ones occupied. While on the larger side for a transportable toy, it is relatively slim and flat and fits easily in a backpack.

    • Includes one latch board with 3 different fastened doors, 3 wooden shapes and a board stand
    • Made from sustainably sourced wood
    • Sustainably certified and eco-friendly
    • Great puzzle game to teach problem solving, fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination
    • Non-toxic wood finishes

     

    Size: 35 x 23 x 1.7cm

    Sensory Play: Touch, visual and cognition

    Schematic Play: This toy is suited to children displaying the positioning and enveloping schemas.

Would recommend

Bought for my son’s first birthday as he loves playing with ‘real life’ locks and latches! I think he enjoys the feel of the metal on this toy. Now at nearly 20 months it’s one of his most played with toys. As the other review mentioned, he needs a little help to get the blue latch opened at the moment so should hold his interest for a while longer.

Very engaging.

Bought for my 19 month old - I didn’t notice the recommended age of 3+. She really enjoys this toy and finds it very interactive, it holds her attention for long periods of time. The blue latch is quite stiff but I imagine a 3 year old could manage this. I initially thought the shape holes at the top were like puzzle piece holes so the fact they side beneath the doors is an added bonus. I also didn’t realise it came with a stand which is helpful.
The company Big Futures sell the shape pieces individually and I would find it useful if Babipur also provided this option as it would be nice to have extras.
Very happy with this purchase, I think it’s her current favourite thing to do!
