NetJuggler's review of the Pertra® Sandbox

The Pertra® Sandbox is an interesting educational tool for children learning to write. Its use allows them to gradually move from overall coordination to a finer mastery of the writing gesture. Contact with the sand also provides beneficial sensory stimulation . It is a product frequently used in occupational therapy and special education , but it also has its place at home, in free and creative games.

Benefits for motor skills and sensory perception

Using the Pertra® Sandbox encourages the development of fine motor skills and visual perception . Tracing shapes and letters in the sand allows the child to better understand the graphic gesture. In addition, the texture of the sand provides a pleasant sensory experience that stimulates the nerve receptors in the skin, thus promoting better body awareness.
