These little Gumdrop Tops are a treasure to keep in your pocket. Don't be fooled by the size of these little sweeties! Though they are small, they offer a great bit of fun and are completely portable, as they fit easily in the palm of your hand. Fun as one, or as a colorful group, these bright drops distract and entertain both little ones and grown-ups alike. They allow little spinners to explore physics while working fine motor skills and dexterity. Watch curious eyes light up with intrigue as the Gumdrop Top flips from ball to stem as it quickly spins!!!

Available colors: Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, (Orange is currently UNAVAILABLE)

Each top measures approximately 2"" from stem to top.

*NOTE – This toy is not intended for children who still mouth things as they would be a choking hazard. As with ALL toys, children should be supervised while eat play.*

---This listing is for ONE Gumdrop Top. Please Choose your color and write it in the Notes To Seller Box. Thank you!

* All of my creations were made with your little one in mind. Each piece was designed to nurture child development through open-ended play. These pieces can be used to broaden your little one's understanding and knowledge of our world and were created as early educational toys. I am inspired by the teachings of Montessori; the natural beauty of Waldorf; and incorporate a myriad of other learning-through-play philosophies when I design. It makes me smile to see my made-with-love pieces being toted for use as preschool toys and in natural play settings. Thank you for helping me support little minds, bodies, and imaginations through engaging, hands-on play and discovery.

A Rainbow fun and educational way to play and learn – colors! Your little one will enjoy picking and placing colored balls into their corresponding cups. This little set is great in enhancing fine motor skills and balance while discussing colors, numbers, and simple volume concepts. My little explorer loves to “scoop” and “pour” these cups over and over again. She is especially proud when she matches the colors together appropriately. This open-ended toy provides many different ways to play – tea party, kitchen accessory, rainbow stacker…with these “tools” and a dash of imagination the play possibilities are endless.

The 6 balls each measure ¾ inch in diameter - The cups measure almost 2 inches ---All have been colored (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Violet) with certified non-toxic watercolors and lightly sealed with beeswax and jojaba oil.

The bowl measure 2 ½ inches – The Scoop measures 3 ½ inches --- Both pieces are in their natural wood state

-All come in a convenient muslin drawstring pouch
