SOUND IDEAS

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS SOUND PUZZLE

The Musical Instruments Sound Puzzle is an audio stimulation aid designed for children with autism and sensory processing disorder to reinforce cause and effect relationships, early vocabulary, and matching skills. Each musical instrument plays a snippet of Old McDonald Had a Farm. Features eight musical instrument wooden puzzle pieces. As puzzle pieces are placed correctly in the puzzle board, matching the instrument on the pieces with the instruments on the board, the puzzle makes the realistic sounds of the specific instrument! The puzzle teaches the association of the particular sound with the instrument that makes it. In addition to teaching instrument sound association, this puzzle also helps build fine motor skills, problem-solving, and independent play. The puzzle may also be used as a silent peg puzzle if used without batteries. Uses two AAA batteries (not included). Ages 2 and up.
