Why we love it
The Versa Peg Mat receives our seal of approval because it is a multifunctional super soft mat for small hands. The Versa Pegs and Mat will help develop your child′s hand-eye coordination, ability to recognize colors and ability to copy patterns. Handling and stacking the small pegs will also help develop the small muscles in your child′s hands. It is one of the best toys for 2 year olds out there!
Features and Skills
- Your child will begin by taking these easy-grip pegs out and putting them in the holes of the mat. This develops your child’s manual dexterity and hand-eye coordination.
- Next your child will think of new ways to visualize the pegs. For example, he/she will stack the pegs on top of one another.
- Sit on the floor with your child and group all the pegs by color. Encourage your little one to make designs or patterns using the different color pegs. He/She can also make designs using all the pegs of one color.
- You can interact with your little one by creating a pattern and having your child try to imitate it. Your toddler can also try to imitate a picture you draw for him/her.
- Count the pegs of each color with your child. This develops early pre-math skills.
- As your child grows you can also practice addition or subtraction using the peg mat by removing or adding pegs to the mat.
- To further develop dexterity, your little one can lace the pegs on the eight included strings. You may need to help guide his/her hand with the string through the holes in the pegs.
- You can lace the pegs in a certain order or pattern and have your child copy the pattern on his/her own string.

Product Reviews
Most sites have product reviews. At ebeanstalk we do it differently. All our reviews happen BEFORE a product makes it on our site. Our team of child-experts looked at, tested and selected only the best toys. Then, they matched the toys to a child’s stage of development. Then they custom write an instruction card for each and every toy. This is the ebeanstalk review process. No other site does this; not even close. By conducting the review ahead of time, we ensure that our toys are the best and you can trust that the toys you are buying are matched to a child’s stage of development.
HOWEVER, we still want your feedback. If you'd like to tell us your impressions of a toy, please email us at feedback@ebeanstalk.com
