Featuring twelve textured quills, each with a unique diameter, Spike helps toddlers identify fit through trial and error. Designed for durability, the main shell opens to store every piece after play. To develop grip strength, quills were made thick enough to require full-finger grasping. The rounded base remains stable while kids insert or remove pegs, preventing wobble. Built using solid plastic that resists impact, the structure avoids deformation during long-term use. Numbers engraved on Spike’s back allow for numeric association. Every element was designed with precision in size, depth, and hand-feel.
Printed using heat-set pigments, the twelve quills retain vibrant colors after repeated handling. Mapped in four primary shades, they can be grouped for early color classification games. Each slot varies slightly in angle, prompting children to rotate pegs for alignment. To teach sequence, a subtle gradient pattern can be followed starting at quill one. The plastic finish prevents absorption of dirt or oils, keeping color visibility consistent. The structure includes tactile indicators along Spike’s body for blind placement games. Four distinct shape guides molded beneath each hole encourage shape comparison alongside color sorting.
Opening the rear compartment reveals a cavity designed to fit every peg with minimal rattle. Hinges were pressure-tested to withstand repeated opening without warping. Quills snap in with a light press, locking them loosely for transport. Rounded chamber walls reduce peg damage during drop-ins. A molded diagram inside the lid displays peg count visuals. By addressing common toy storage issues, this system prevents lost parts and clutter while making clean-up easier for both kids and adults.
