Why we love it

Features and Skills
- Children love to hide things away in secret little places. With this Latches Board puzzle your child will practice opening up different latches some that go up, some that slide across, and some that click. But all the latches do the same thing; secure the door to hold something in place.
- Begin by placing this puzzle on a hard flat surface and show your child how the latches of this toddler toy work.
- Teach your child the concept of inside and outside.
- Remind him/her of the things in your home that may go inside other things. The food goes inside the refrigerator, the trash goes inside the pail. Encourage the child to put things away in the right place, just like in his/her room or playroom.
- To increase the difficulty of this puzzle, have your child try it on a slanted surface.
- Once your child has mastered the latches on the board, show your child how these latches are just like the different locks and fasteners around your house and have him/her try open or close some of those.

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
