Learning Resources Sounds of Rain Sensory Tubes, Toys for 3 Year Old Boys and Girls, Calming Fidget, 3 Sounds, Snow, Rain and Thunderstorm

As described. Very study!

These are great. Large, sturdy, well made. These have been well played with and thrown by my SEN child and theyre robust enough to survive. The sounds are so nice and i find myself playing with them.

My boy had these for christmas and 5 months later ones already broke!For a sensory toy this isnt made very good at all,all the metal beads came out & could quite easily of been swallowed,luckily i was there and it was avoided.Not happy with this product at all

Rubbish sound nothing like rain

I am autistic myself and I absolutely loved these my favourite was the storm one. These are brilliant for anyone who visually or auditory stims. It is a great resource for SEN learners in science to help them to make the link between the weather condition and the sound that they make. It has so many different functions not only for supporting learning but also for them to get the sensory input that they need to regulate and to stay within their window of tolerance. It is great for cause and effect play as you can link the cause of turning it over to the effect of the noise it makes and it is great for their co-ordination of lifting the tube up and down. These are great for any child who plays rough as these are made really well and are really good quality so will last a long time and there are no small parts (other than the balls inside but they can only be accessed if the tube is broken open). It is great for many things and I found it to be super engaging

My son will absolutely love these. Haven’t opened as they are a Christmas gift. But first impressions are great.

These are interesting and our little one is quite fascinated by them, mostly due to how tactile and visually interesting it is to see these little balls spiral around the tube. The sounds they produce are quite nice—especially the drizzle one which has quite a dense sound compared to the others.However, I will say that the sounds don't quite match up to the natural sound of rain that I was expecting (it's more noisy and like a rattle) and it's also very short lived - you'll get about a second of sound each time you flip them.Also, the storm tube doesn't always work, mainly because the little balls inside tend to get stuck in the middle if you aren't careful. It requires pretty specific handling so our little one isn't a fan of it, but still enjoys the others!I was surprised at how big the tubes are, but at least they're really easy for small hands to grip.They do have a decent calming effect even if the sound isn't too rain-like, due to how tactile the whole process is. However, I do think they could have been a bit better as I really like the concept.

The media could not be loaded. ⛈️A set of three sensory tubes based on the weather⛈️From Learning Resources a great educational brand. I've used lots of their products over the years as an erstwhile early years and primary teacher. They are always of great quality and rigorous in play⛈️You get three tubes - one for drizzle, shower and storm - we love the storm with the tinkering sound in the middle⛈️These would be lovely in music play, topics around weather but for me are perfect as an all round sensory resource that can help children regulate⛈️The design means that they stand on their ends but you can also lay flat and they don't roll⛈️The design on the end means that they are easy for little hands to grasp and move around
