Farm Friends Bowling Game by Early Years

A fun game that is sure to be the source of a lot of laughs, cheering and clapping! There are 6 numbered Farm Friend Bowling pins that feature flat bases and various rattle sounds. The bowling ball is weighted and has a rattle in addition to being soft and brightly colored. This game is sure to help a great deal in developing hand-eye-coordination. Don't wait any longer - let's get bowling!

With a little creativity this game will be a lot more than just a bowling game.
The farm friend pins set the stage for singing the popular ´Old MacDonald…´ song and you can have a lot of fun imitating the sound of the pin you want to bowl over. The numbers on the pins can be used for sequencing games (line up the pins from 1 to 6) and an introduction to early addition - "" Matthew bowled over pin 1 and 2 therefore he gets 3 points!"". The game will also teach your child that other objects (in this case the ball) can be used to accomplish tasks (bowl over the pins).

Farm Frinds Bowling features:
* 6 Soft numbered bowling pins
* Pins have rattling sounds
* 1 Soft weighted bowling ball with rattle inside
Ages: 18 - 48 months

A Favourite   
Joelle of Winnipeg, Manitoba from   9/21/2008 5:38:01 AM

Our Godson loves balls. At almost two, he was already displaying great athletesism, thowing, rolling, catching them better than I could! When I saw this little bowling game set, I immediately thought of him, since the theme for his bedroom is also "farm friends". When he opened the gift on Christmas morning, he was immediately intrigued by these colourful characters. When he broke into the package, he first wanted to touch and hug all the pins, but when he realized it was a bowling game, he got very excited. It was easy to understand for a little tyke and there wasnt any worry about toxic plastic or paint. The bonus: the soft pins and ball were not breakage or injury hazards for a house or kids close to a fastball throwing two year old!

 

Cute, but not used as intended   
Maria of St Leonard, Quebec from   9/24/2008 10:45:54 AM

My 22 month old still hasnt quite caught on to the concept of bowling so he tends to play with the ball, and likes to shake the pins to hear them jingle, but hasnt associated using the ball to knock down the pins (in spite of us having shown him how to do it).

Development benefits

The following developmental skills and benefits are encouraged by Farm Friends Bowling Game learning toy:

Farm Friends Bowling Game develops Motor skills
Motor skills are actions that involve the movement of muscles in the body. They are divided into two groups: gross motor skills, which include the larger movements of arms, legs, feet, or the entire body (crawling, running, and jumping); and fine motor skills, which are smaller actions, such as grasping an object between the thumb and a finger or using the lips and tongue to taste objects or for speech.

 

Farm Friends Bowling Game develops Fine motor skills
Fine motor skills involve a refined use of the small muscles controlling the hand, fingers, thumb, wrists, feet, toes, lips, and tongue.

The development of these skills allows one to be able to complete tasks such as writing, drawing, buttoning and speech. Fine motor abilities develop over time, starting with primitive gestures such as grabbing at objects, that develop into basic grasping and manipulation skills to more precise activities that involve precise hand-eye coordination in preschool years and onwards.

The preschooler becomes quite adept in self-help, construction, holding grips, and bimanual control tasks requiring the use of both hands. When the child enters middle childhood they make great progress in their artistic abilities. They begin to express themselves through drawing, sculpting, and clay modeling.

 

Farm Friends Bowling Game develops Gross Motor Skills
Gross Motor Skills are the movements of the large muscles of the body. Activities that use large muscle groups would be running, jumping, riding bikes.

 

Farm Friends Bowling Game develops Hand Eye Coordination
Hand-eye coordination is the ability of the vision system to coordinate the information received through the eyes to control, guide, and direct the hands in the accomplishment of a given task, such as handwriting or catching a ball

 

Farm Friends Bowling Game develops number recognition and teach counting

 

Farm Friends Bowling Game develops problem solving/Cognitive Development
Cognitive development is the process by which the brain develops the abilities to learn, remember and solve problems.

The foundation for these abilities starts during infancy as the brain begins forming countless synapses, or connections, between brain or nerve cells. The brain is made up of neurons (nerve cells resembling long wires).

When a baby is born there are relatively few connections between the neurons, and it is you and your baby's primary task to make new ones. Connections (synapses) between brain cells are made when a baby receives stimulation. As you engage and responds to your baby, you are helping to activate the formation of synapses. The synapses will combine to form neural pathways, and the configuration of those pathways will determine the child's ability to learn, relate to people, manage emotions, and function in the world.

 

Farm Friends Bowling Game develops cause and effect

 

Farm Friends Bowling Game stimulates Social Development
Social Development is defined as a baby/child/person's ability to interact with others, including helping themselves and self-control.

  Why Ape to Zebra customers keep returning!

I love shopping at Ape to Zebra! The selection is outstanding, the customer service excellent! I have told alot of friends about this store and now they shop here too! Best of all I know all the toys have been researched and are "safe". I rather buy a couple of good quality toys that several "junkie" toys that just fall apart. I look forward to placing my next order!
Laura from Chesterville, Canada


Last Christmas, I was looking for unique, SAFE, toys to give to my son, niece, and godson, who are all born within the same year. Due to time constraints - and a dislike of shopping (at any time of the year) - a starting searching for gift ideas on the Web, hoping to find some store in our city that could meet my needs. While searching, I happened upon Ape to Zebra. I was SO impressed with the selection, the organization, the information on this website. The biggest bonus: it was a Canadian company! As Id left things a little late for my comfort - Im usually done the bulk of my Christmas shopping before the beginning of December - I was a little concerned about the gifts arriving on time. However, they were shipped out the same day and I got a PHONE call from Cornel confirming it was on its way. I was impressed. I was even more impressed when the toys I purchased arrived a few short days later. They were all so beautiful - it took all my will power to not break them open to play with them myself! I really appreciated this "one-stop shop", which gave me the opportunity to find great gifts, from the comfort of my home - no running around town, which is a bonus now with high gas prices! Ive already been browsing the site for this years Christmas gifts. My only problem - there are just too many beautiful choices!
