Putty (or slime, as the kids are calling it these days) is a fun, interactive way to engage children in therapeutic exercises. The bright colors and weird texture fascinates and captivates children, encouraging them to manipulate the putty. This is a great way to condition gripping, finger dexterity, and hand strength. Putty also works as a way to develop and maintain attention spans, as many children find it easier to focus when they have something to occupy their hands.
The CanDo TheraPutty scented putty offers four different brightly-colors putties that have different resistance levels and difference scents. The fun smell is another way to engage children and can help slowly introduce multi-sensory activities for children with conditions like autism spectrum disorder who can get easily overwhelmed.
Each color can be purchased in 2 ounces, 1 pound, or 5 pound quantities.
