What the NW Awards testers said:

"Suitable from birth, the Silver Sensory Reflective Balls provide a rich array of opportunities for babies and young children to experience multi-sensory play and engage in creative exploratory play and thinking. As children roll and move the mirrored spheres, they observe different effects, encouraging them to question and seek explanation for what they see. Made from hard wearing stainless steel, the balls range from 60 to 150mm in diameter and can be used inside and out. Teaching assistant Steph Virgo from Weald Community Primary School in Kent says they first used the balls on a sunny day outside and the children were fascinated by their reflective qualities, which lead to discussion about reflection and properties of light."
