On Friday I asked Shyra if she could put together a customized toy for my Emma and I am so so so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wanted a toy that acknowledges all of Emma's preferences, playing behaviours and one that encompasses toy PARTS that Emma ALREADY LOVES.
This toy Must have LOTS of leather and hemp rope KNOTS and LOTS of nice interesting beads and shapes to keep her VERY busy and captivated.
Shyra was up for the challenge. Today she sent me a picture of the SAMPLE prototype for some tweaking and to see if I like it or not.
Here's a brief description of the toy as per Shyra….
The hair going around the top of the frog is done with 14 feet of leather divided into 14 strands. There are 63 knots and 49 parts/beads on the frog.She's sitting on a baseball size whiffle ball. There are 56 strands of hemp with five knots each (280 total) with 3 beads and one toy part on each strand (168 beads, 56 parts total). All together with both sections it gives you 273 beads/parts and 343 knots. The toy is 13 inches long from the top o'ring to the bottom and 8 inches wide. A 3.5 mm np quicklink will be included. To give you a little better idea on the size the top of the hat (not including the three beads above the hat) to the bottom of the frog is about the same height as a coke can.
There are sea critters, sea creatures, 1" chain, plastic keys, small spin wheels, some rubber sea creatures that are a little stronger than an eraser but have the feel of one but much much more safer, 2 inch wooden hearts and stars, 1 1/4" wood hearts, 1" wood stars, plastic letters, jumping frogs, candyland beads, gumball beads, stringing rings, heart shaped pony beads, butterfly pony beads, star pony beads, pony beads, oval beads, and melon beads, as well as some soft plastic beads made from snake whistles.
****This Toy will be on the ParrotAsylum site as soon as Shyra has a chance to update her site.. but if you wish to order it you can just email Shyra directly. She's wonderful to do business with.
