Flex

At Neo Family, we have selected Flex, the open-ended developmental toy from OPPI that lets the child decide how to play. It consists of three sensory shapes made of food-grade silicone—a sphere, a cylinder, and a cone—with eye-catching grooves and colors. A simple toy with no set instructions.

Why do we love it? Because it accompanies children through several stages. The youngest ones chew on it to soothe their gums and explore the textures with their fingertips. Later on, they toss, roll, handle, and stack the pieces, which trains their motor skills. Multifunctional, it can also be taken into the bath, a pool, or even into the sand, since the silicone rinses off in an instant.

Gift idea: an affordable price for a toy that stays in the toy basket for a long time, perfect for a birth or a visit to the maternity ward. It slips into a diaper bag without taking up much space. To take it further, offer it with the Stak stacking game, which complements the discovery of shapes very well.
