Hi everyone! I’ve been looking into getting a sensory or busy board for my toddler — something hands-on that would help with motor skill development and keep those little fingers busy. But honestly, most of the ones I’ve found either look cheaply made or are way out of budget.

I’m hoping to find something that’s well-built, safe (non-toxic materials, ideally eco-friendly), and preferably based on Montessori ideas. I’d love a board with real-world elements like latches, zippers, and buttons — not just random plastic pieces glued on.

Have any of you purchased a busy board that you truly loved? Would really appreciate any personal recommendations — especially if the quality was solid and the price reasonable. Thanks in advance!
