Thinking Toys (Ireland)

Thinking Toys (Ireland) Specialise in providing Toys & Equipment suitable for Children with Special Needs.

Thinking Toys was established with the aim of increasing the awareness of a range of products that can bring specific benefit to children with special needs or learning difficulties. It is a family business inspired by our daughter who has Sturge Weber Syndrome and who had major brain surgery when she was 2 years old. The frustration and difficulties we endured in trying to source suitable products that would assist in her development was a catalyst in deciding to try and reduce this frustration for other parents in similar situations.

We are absolutely thrilled to introduce a wonderful new product called the five finger pencil grip. For some children tucking away the fingers in pencil grip mode can be a real challenge. We now have a solution, this cheap and cheerful little writing aid will make a mighty impact in helping develop the pencil grip and take the frustration out of writing colouring etc.

🛴 Scooter Boards: Small Tools, Big Impact! 🛴

For many children with additional needs, everyday movement can come with extra challenges - from building core strength and balance, to coordinating both sides of the body and keeping children focused on the task at hand.

That’s where scooter boards come in! 🙌

✨ They help:
• Build core strength & postural control
• Improve balance and coordination
• Support motor planning and spatial awareness
• Encourage bilateral movement (using both sides of the body)
• Boost confidence through fun, achievable movement

Best of all, they turn therapy into play, helping children develop essential physical and sensory skills while having fun! 💛

Swipe to see the different scooter boards we offer and find the right fit.

The wonderfully crafted Flower Sorter is great for developing visual perception skills and problem solving including:

Shape and colour discrimination: Children sort flowers by shape, size, or colour.

Matching and pattern recognition: Comparing pieces to the corresponding slots improves visual matching skills.

Spatial reasoning: Fitting shapes into the correct holes supports understanding of orientation and spatial relationships (e.g., bigger vs smaller, round vs square).

Coordination of eyes and hands: Seeing where a piece should go and placing it accurately links visual processing with motor output.
