Neurosmith Jumbo Music Block



I recently found this toy in a thrift store, and my daughter loves it! Each side of the soft fabric cube has a different mini activity, that is ideal for a blind child. Each side also makes music as you interact with it. I really like the music too- it is not nearly as annoying as most toys. It sounds close to cd quality, and the songs are pretty good. My biggest complaint about this toy is that it can be hard to clean. But, it is important for a blind child to interact with different textures, and this definitely has a few.

It is light enough a toddler could pick it up. it has thick piping around it, that make it easy to grab. My daughter has also used it to stand- although I don't necessarily recommend it for that, as it is not very heavy or supportive.

  1. That's such a cute toy. I wonder if I can find one nearby for my son. He also has septo-optic dysplasia.
