Wind the Fabric Box – Cause & Effect Learning Toy (Ages 3+)

Introduce children to the principle of cause and effect with the engaging Wind the Fabric Box. As little hands pull the soft fabric strip from the wooden box and rewind it using the smooth wooden knob, they discover that things they can’t see still exist. This simple yet captivating activity also strengthens fine motor control, hand-eye coordination, and concentration.

Crafted from durable wood with a brightly coloured fabric strip, the box is designed for repeated classroom or home use. Its tactile play style makes it a wonderful addition to early learning centres, Montessori-inspired environments, and sensory play corners.
