'An absolutely amazing product and was used all the time. The 'splats' themselves are a brilliant size for small fingers to hold, helping to encourage fine motor skills. They make learning colours great fun. The splats were used to explore the world around us in different colours by holding it up to the child's eye; this was great to give different perspectives and made learning fun. They are brilliant if used with a light box as the colours are very vibrant however they work just as well against a window. They have a small hole in them which is perfect for threading string through and suspending from a jungle gym, this way children are able to watch the light refracting off them and it was great at encouraging small children to reach for things, encouraging gross motor skills. They were used time and time again and kept the children engaged and focused so they were unaware that they were learning. They feel great quality and clean well.'
