Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical supplies, in particular to a tactile training device for infants. Background Art

[0002] Infancy is a critical period for children's growth and development. Providing good care and health management during this stage will promote their all-round development in physical development, movement, language, cognition, emotion and sociality. Through daily life experience and communication and play, promote the development of children's vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch, proprioception, vestibular sense and other senses, give children the opportunity to explore freely, and promote children's cognitive development. Touch refers to the skin sensation caused by gently touching the tactile receptors of the skin. For infants and young children, touch is their main way to understand the world. If the tactile function is not fully developed or abnormal, it will have an adverse effect on the development of infants and young children's abilities in many aspects.

[0003] At present, the tactile training tools on the market have relatively single functions and cannot train multiple senses. For example, the early sensory training socks provided by the Chinese utility model patent with announcement number CN210471039U realize the training of children's touch and hearing by fixing the front end of the sock body and the sock surface with touch pieces that provide different tactile and auditory perceptions at equal intervals. In order to achieve the training of multiple senses, it is necessary to use multiple training tools. Although this is beneficial to the training of various senses of children to a certain extent, it is not convenient to use. Therefore, it is necessary to provide an infant tactile trainer to facilitate the training of multiple senses such as touch, hearing, and vision for infants, thereby promoting the healthy physical and mental growth of infants.
