TTS Mark Making Sequin Butterflies and Dragonflies

Stroke, Trace & Create with the TTS Mark Making Sequin Butterflies and Dragonflies – Tactile Mark Making Boards That Build Fine Motor Skills Through Play

Description

There is something genuinely magnetic about a surface that changes as you touch it. Run a finger across these TTS butterfly and dragonfly sequin boards and the wings shift colour in a satisfying sweep - sparkling, tactile, and completely irresistible to small hands across Canada and the US.

This set of four wall-mounted sequin sensory wall panels from TTS comes shaped as 2 butterflies and 2 dragonflies, each covered in colour-changing flip sequins enclosed in a sturdy wooden frame. They are far more than decoration. Every stroke, swipe, and deliberate mark a child makes with their fingers or tools is quietly doing developmental work - building the hand strength, coordination, and concentration that underpin early writing and daily life skills.

Skills Your Child Develops with These Sequin Sensory Boards

• Fine Motor Skills & Hand-Eye Coordination - Stroking, swiping, and tracing patterns across the sequin surface builds the precise finger and hand movements needed for writing, drawing, and daily self-care tasks
• Pincer Grip Development - Using tools or fingertips to engage with the sequins strengthens the pincer grip essential for pencil control and early mark making
• Tactile & Sensory Exploration - Introduces children to different textures and the cause-and-effect of touch, enriching sensory development and supporting sensory regulation through calm, repetitive engagement
• Expressive Arts & Creative Mark Making - Provides an open-ended medium for children to make patterns, write letters, draw shapes, and express ideas freely through touch-based mark making
• Gross & Fine Motor Development - Whole-arm sweeping movements alongside precise fingertip work cover both fine and gross motor skill development within a single engaging resource

Why Sequin Sensory Panels Belong in Every Early Learning Space

The tactile appeal of flip sequin fabric is hard to explain to anyone who has not seen a child encounter it for the first time. There is an almost universal draw - the sparkle, the colour change, the texture under the fingertips. TTS has harnessed that instinctive curiosity and built it into a wall resource that earns its place in early years classrooms, occupational therapy clinics, sensory rooms, and home play spaces alike.

For children who thrive on tactile input, these panels offer a reliable, calming sensory experience within a clearly bounded space. For children building early writing foundations, the boards provide a mess-free, endlessly resettable mark-making surface. For educators and therapists, they create a vertical learning opportunity that keeps children upright, engaged, and building shoulder stability alongside hand control.
