$135.00
A soft fabric muff twiddle toy for seniors with detachable tactile attachments including a squeezable ball, crinkle bag, textured ribbons, and wooden beads. Supports hand engagement and gentle sensory exploration in one-to-one sessions.
The Activity Hand Twiddle – Dog is a soft fabric muff with a range of detachable tactile attachments. As a twiddle toy for seniors, it gives restless or fidgety hands something purposeful to explore during quiet or one-to-one time.
What’s included
The muff comes with a squeezable ball tethered inside, plus a set of interchangeable attachments that can be swapped out or removed for washing:
- Sealed satin bag filled with crinkle material
- Strand of textured ribbons
- Loop of colourful wooden beads
- Soft satin or faux suede pocket for small personal items
- Velcro tab patch for tactile interaction
All attachments are fully detachable and the muff is machine washable. Use it alongside gentle conversation about colours, textures, or memories the object may bring to mind. Note that this product contains small parts and requires one-to-one supervision. It is not suitable for unsupervised use by anyone who tends to mouth objects.
- Texture conversation: Invite the person to handle each attachment in turn and describe what they feel – rough, smooth, soft, bumpy. Use their responses to guide a relaxed conversation.
- Colour naming: Point to the wooden beads or ribbons and ask the person to name the colours. This can be a low-pressure way to encourage verbal engagement.
- Memory prompt: Ask whether any of the textures or materials remind them of something from their past – fabric from clothing, beads from jewellery, or a childhood toy.
- Attachment swap: Let the person choose which attachment to put on the muff. The act of connecting and removing the pieces supports fine motor engagement.
- Quiet hands activity: During one-to-one time or on transport, offer the muff as a self-directed hand activity without structured prompting.
