Learning Resources Tri-Grip Tongs

We found the perfect place for these toys — the bath! During bath time, each of the kids usually does some water-based experiments right in the tub. I complemented the toy set with a few kids’ experiment bottles to make it a complete kit.

These are a fantastic fine motor skills resource that are so well used in my setting. The children are really gaining strength using these in preparation for writing skills

My toddler really enjoyed figuring out what to do with each one. The tongs is easy to use, I've used ones before that even I found difficult so this one is nice. The water dropper was a real favourite and gives endless fun with water!! The yellow double scoop was very easy to use, while the coloured scoop takes practice for a toddler as it should. A good learing tool for using a scissors etc. But as other reviews mentioned it is flimsy and broke day 1, I superglued it and it stuck but then the other side broke. Hopefully it will last as it's a much used toy since we got it

Great quality

I have been after a set like this for ages as I do a lot of fine motor activities at home with my 3 year old to strengthen her hands. We have used all the scoops in various sensory boxes and even in the bath. We have used them for all kinds of games and activities. My daughter even loves putting the scoops back into the packaging so they all fit into their place - which is actually great for perceptual skills 😂 I really like how the large ball scoop has the same handle as scissors would, and so it is a great way to teach little hands how to assume the scissor grasp, and practice a cutting motion without too much resistance. So you get a lot of practice of the motion without tiring the little hands. It’s great!! Love this set!

I was dubious about buying these because of the reviews but I'm glad I did. Yes, some of the tools seem quite flimsy but for the price, they are the best fine motor tools that I have found. They provide decent resistance and are just the right level of difficulty to manoeuvre and use for the children in my class. Plus when they arrived at school and I opened them at lunch tim, the exact right children were fascinated by them when they came in from lunch and have been begging to use them ever since. I bought these to fulfil a £20 minimum spend to get an add-on item free postage since I was close already but they actually ended up being the star of the show.

lovely bright, sturdy tweezers. they are robust enough to use in the classroom knowing they are not going to snap. they are quite stiff to use so would say best for 4 years and up. but a fantastic resource for fine motor skills development. i particularly like that these ones support correct pencil grip with the molded finger placements.

Good quality and great for children's fine motor skills, perfect size for toddlers, I do, however, think they are a bit pricey for what they are.
