## Description

["This hedgehog lost his quills and only your little ones can help him get them back! Spike is a fine motor skills toy that helps kids build hand muscles and fine motor skills development as they replace the chunky, peg-shaped “quills” within the holes that dot the smiling hedgehog’s back. The learning doesn't end there—Spike's colorful quills also lend themselves well to lessons in counting, sorting, and color identification skills. Kids can arrange quills by warm or cool colors, work on sequences and patterns by alternating colors, or count the quills with numbers printed on this fine motor toy for toddlers. Montessori toys for 1 year old means Spike is perfect for those who love to play. Once playtime is over, the hedgehog is a snap to clean up—each piece is made of plastic that can be easily wiped clean, and the quills stow snugly inside the hedgehog body.

Review: Juguetes de niños muy hermosos - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great toy for developing fine motor skills I bought this toy for my 2-year-old, and they loved it right away. The pieces are colorful, easy to hold, and safe for little hands. It helps practice hand-eye coordination as they place the “spikes” into the hedgehog’s holes. Plus, all the pieces store neatly inside the toy, which makes cleanup super easy. The material feels sturdy and well-made. It’s a wonderful way to encourage learning through play, especially for toddlers developing fine motor skills. Highly
Review: Easy brain power toy that’s no fuss - Colorful, well-made, and an easy but brain powering activity. This was a Christmas gift for a 16mo old and they LOVE it! It’s easy for them to play by themselves but entertaining/challenging enough that it’s an easy 10+ minute activity every time. The back easily comes off for storage of the pins. The back snaps on fairly good so you could throw this in a toy bag to take in the car without losing any pieces. So far it’s been super easy to clean and wipe down. Doesn’t require any assembly or batteries! It also makes ZERO NOISE! Would absolutely buy / gift to babies or 1 year of age.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: are the quills rubber or plastic?**
A: The quills on mine are NOT rubber, but are a sturdy, hollow plastic. That being said, I'm sure a set of strong gums / teeth could make permanent indents in them because they are hollow. Each quill has a very tiny hole in each end (1.5 mm wide), probably for manufacturing purposes, but it's big enough that saliva or bathwater could get trapped inside and grow gunk if you aren't careful. Each quill is 3 5/8" long. The circular part that pokes into the hedgehog body is about 5/8" in diameter and slides 1" into the body. The ergonomic end for little fingers to hold is a 7/8" x 5/8" oval.

**Q: Is there a way to obtain replacement quills? We had emailed the listed address and the message was returned. Thank you!**
A: Also came here with the same question

**Q: How long can it be used?**
A: Love this toy my grandson does it over and over! Not only good for colors but also numbers and coordination

**Q: Is it good for travel?**
A: Yes, the spikes fit into the shell for easy storage. If planning to use in a vehicle or airplane I would suggest a travel tray.
