Thinking and sensory learning

The Mystery capsules are a wonderful tool for my library story time. It keeps the kiddos thinking and wondering what each sound is. They love touching and turning the capsule knob. This product is extremely well made and safe.

Super cute idea, but I wish I could refill them with other things. Some of the items were difficult to guess.

Sturdy and creative

I loved the concept of this toy. Is very sturdy, easy to handle and use for little hands. But I wish the materials inside will offer more variety.

Fabulous Sensory item

Loved these. The younger kids like to shake and then look inside but the older kids would create guessing games. They even made their own to add to the collection.

So many ways to play!

These sturdy capsules are captivating for little learners. The moving parts are fascinating but the objects inside, sealed for safety, make such a fun variety of sounds.

Fun to Guess what's inside!

My students loved to try to guess what was inside these. They could guess one or two things, but not all of them. It was fun for an activity when the weather didn't permit us to go outside.

Perfect for my preschool science center- I love that these are fully closed so no worries about choking with the smaller items.

Durable sound capsules

These durable capsules are a great way to allow students to use their deductive and reasoning skills to differentiate and identify different types of sounds. I also enjoy using them with slightly older students as part of a morning warm-up to help them engage their brains, as well as to get various parts of their brains working together first thing in order to encourage further learning.
