SpinTots

A bird on one side, a cage on the other. Spin the disc and the bird is in the cage! Try four spinning pictures, then print them, cut them out with a grown-up, tape one to a pencil and spin it for real. Plus beak cards: one cut and two folds make a card that talks. Ages 3–5.

Built for sittings of about 10 minutes on the screen. That is our design budget, not a measurement.
