Flex-Grip Tongs – Strengthen Little Hands Through Play

Support early writing, cutting, and fine motor development with Flex-Grip Tongs, specially designed for little hands. These child-sized tongs provide the perfect balance of resistance and control, helping children build the hand strength and coordination they need for essential classroom skills.

Bright, engaging, and easy to use, Flex-Grip Tongs transform everyday sorting and sensory activities into purposeful opportunities for motor development.

Designed to Build Hand Strength and Control

Strong hand muscles are the foundation for early handwriting and scissor skills. Flex-Grip Tongs encourage children to squeeze, grasp, and release with control, strengthening the small muscles in the hands and fingers.

The long handles provide stability and leverage, while the soft silicone ends offer a comfortable grip and improved precision. As children pick up and move objects, they naturally develop:

  • Fine motor skills

  • Hand-eye coordination

  • Grip strength

  • Bilateral coordination

  • Controlled squeezing movements

These skills are essential for early years learning and daily tasks.

Perfect for Sorting, Sensory and Tuff-Tray Activities

Flex-Grip Tongs are ideal for a wide range of hands-on activities. Use them for sorting games, counting exercises, pom-pom transfers, sensory bins, or tuff-tray challenges. The controlled squeezing action makes them perfect for both structured learning tasks and open-ended play.

Whether children are transferring small objects, organising materials by colour, or completing fine motor challenges, these tongs provide a fun and practical way to practise precision and coordination.

Child-Friendly Design for Easy Use

Sized specifically for young learners, Flex-Grip Tongs are easy to hold and operate. The soft silicone ends make grasping objects simple and secure, reducing frustration while encouraging independence.

Their bright colours capture attention and make them appealing in the classroom and home settings. Supplied with a reusable storage bucket, they are easy to organise and tidy away after activities.
