Description:

Bring purposeful hand activity into everyday routines with Special Supplies Therapy Putty. For children with special needs who benefit from fine motor practice or enjoy tactile sensory input, this set provides material to squeeze, pinch, stretch, and shape. It also serves teens and adults looking for resistive hand exercise or a hands-on sensory activity.

Four strengths for different activities

Each color has a different resistance level, so parents, caregivers, educators, and therapists can choose the challenge that fits the user and activity. All four levels are included:

  • Yellow: Extra soft

  • Red: Soft

  • Green: Medium

  • Blue: Firm

The colors and labeled lids make each strength easy to identify. Having several levels available lets you adjust an activity without needing to purchase another container.

Simple ways to use it

Squeeze the putty in the palm for grip practice, pinch it between the thumb and fingers, or use both hands to pull and twist it. Roll and shape it for a tabletop fine motor activity, or offer it during a sensory break for someone who enjoys working material with their hands.

Use it at home, in the classroom, or during therapist-guided activities. For an established therapy routine, follow your therapist’s recommendations for resistance and exercises.

What’s included

  • Four containers of therapy putty, one of each resistance level

  • 3 oz. of putty per container, 12 oz. total

  • Silicone putty

  • Unscented and fragrance free

  • Individual containers with lids
