This Large Busy Board measures 20 by 16 inches, big enough that a toddler can work it with both hands at once, and it stands on its own so a child can play at it like a little workstation. The oversized surface packs in more activities than pocket boards, with latches, buckles, gears, switches, and textures that build fine-motor control and keep attention longer than a small toy. When play is done it folds flat to slide behind a couch or into a bag, so the size does not cost you storage space. Best for toddlers who have outgrown a small board, daycare or playroom use, or a gift that will hold up through more than one kid. Adult supervision recommended for smaller latches and pieces.
