These engaging rollers help support feelings of calm and wellbeing in addition to improving fine motor skills. Moving the rollers in different directions reveals fascinating, sensory patterns that are inviting to touch. Children will be absorbed in the relaxing motion of creating continuous designs and deciding which way to roll – round and round, up and down or free flow! The unique design of the rollers helps to strengthen children’s hand muscles, laying the foundations for mark-making and future handwriting.
Ideal for quiet moments to soothe, reassure and focus attention when some special time out is needed, or to enjoy with others, this collection features nature-inspired elements renowned for their calming properties. It provides a wonderful opportunity for children to engage in thoughtful discussions, contemplating the reasons behind the soothing effect of each design and fostering a sense of well-being. The set includes fish shoal, waves, clouds, feathers, stars, and hearts.

Samantha Barret, Reception Class Teacher –
We recently received some of the roll around play doh rollers. Working in a busy reception class we need resources that are durable and stand up to the heavy handedness of 30 4-5 year olds. These rollers have been used, dropped, stood on, used as a bowling ball and they look as good as new! I can honestly say that they are the only resources that I have found that truly last the test of time. I can get the resources bought last year out again this year and they’re just as good as the day we bought them.
The rollers provide a great sensory outlet for the children. They also encourage the children to explore different movement actions. Rather than the traditional up and down action of a rolling pin, they allow the children to achieve a desired effect using a range of movements. They encourage the children to experiment with diagonals and side-to-side movements as well, encouraging them to cross their body’s midline, which is vital for writing development.
