Featuring 12 colorful, easy-grip quills and numbered holes, it promotes fine motor development, hand-eye coordination, color recognition, counting, and pattern skills. Its smart storage compartment ensures easy cleanup and portability, making it a favorite among parents and educators for engaging, screen-free learning that grows with your child. ## Description Meet Spike, the colorful hedgehog who needs your child's help to get his quills back! This adorable fine motor skills toy has quickly become a favorite among parents, educators, and children alike for its simple yet effective approach to early childhood development. As little hands grasp the chunky, peg-shaped quills and carefully place them into the holes on Spike's back, they're actually building crucial hand muscles and developing the fine motor coordination that will support future writing, buttoning, and other important skills. But Spike offers so much more than just motor skills development. Parents and teachers love using this versatile toy to introduce color recognition by asking children to identify or sort the quills by color. The numbered holes on Spike's back (1-12) make counting practice fun and concrete, while the different colored quills invite creative pattern-making and sequencing activities. Parents consistently report that Spike engages children for extended periods -Many find it remarkable how this seemingly simple toy holds children's interest from 18 months through preschool years, adapting to their developing skills and understanding. Whether used for independent play or guided learning activities, Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog combines playful engagement with developmental benefits Review: Juguetes de niños muy hermosos - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great toy for developing fine motor skills I bought this toy for my 2-year-old, and they loved it right away. The pieces are colorful, easy to hold, and safe for little hands. It helps practice hand-eye coordination as they place the “spikes” into the hedgehog’s holes. Plus, all the pieces store neatly inside the toy, which makes cleanup super easy. The material feels sturdy and well-made. It’s a wonderful way to encourage learning through play, especially for toddlers developing fine motor skills. Highly Review: Easy brain power toy that’s no fuss - Colorful, well-made, and an easy but brain powering activity. This was a Christmas gift for a 16mo old and they LOVE it! It’s easy for them to play by themselves but entertaining/challenging enough that it’s an easy 10+ minute activity every time. The back easily comes off for storage of the pins. The back snaps on fairly good so you could throw this in a toy bag to take in the car without losing any pieces. So far it’s been super easy to clean and wipe down. Doesn’t require any assembly or batteries! It also makes ZERO NOISE! Would absolutely buy / gift to babies or 1 year of age. ## Features - DEVELOPS ESSENTIAL FINE MOTOR SKILLS - Colorful, quills help toddlers strengthen hand muscles, and enhance hand-eye coordination as they remove and place the pieces in the hedgehog's back - GROWS WITH YOUR CHILD - Perfect for ages 18 months and up, this versatile toy evolves from simple play for toddlers to teaching colors, counting, and pattern recognition for preschoolers - PROVIDES ENGAGING SENSORY PLAY - The specially designed quills with easy-grip texture captivate children's attention, encouraging focus and concentration while providing valuable tactile stimulation - PROMOTES COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT - Numbered holes in the hedgehog's back create natural opportunities for learning number identification, counting skills, and color matching through playful exploration - PRACTICAL SMART DESIGN - Includes storage compartment inside the hedgehog to keep all 12 quills organized and contained, making cleanup easy and ensuring no pieces get lost during travel or storage ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B078WM314M | | Age Range Description | 18+ Months | | Best Sellers Rank | #444 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #5 in Sorting & Stacking Toys | | Brand Name | Learning Resources | | Color | Multi-color | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 54,456 Reviews | | Educational Objective | Color Recognition | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00765023889048 | | Included Components | 14 chunky, peg-shaped “quills”, and hedgehog’s | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 10 x 10 x 4 inches | | Item Type Name | Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog | | Item Weight | 0.33 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Learning Resources | | Manufacturer Maximum Age (MONTHS) | 48.0 | | Manufacturer Minimum Age (MONTHS) | 18.0 | | Manufacturer Part Number | LER8904 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | No Warranty | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | LER8904 | | Number of Players | 1 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Power Source | Manual | | Set Name | Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog | | Size | 1 Count (Pack of 1) | | Sub Brand | Spike The Fine Motor Hedgehog | | Subject Character | Motor Hedgehog | | Supported Battery Types | No batteries required | | Theme | Toys And Games | | UPC | 765023889048 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Images ![SPIKE THE FINE MOTOR HEDGEHOG - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713oNJAAN4L.jpg) ![SPIKE THE FINE MOTOR HEDGEHOG - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71cYKOZ3C1L.jpg) ![SPIKE THE FINE MOTOR HEDGEHOG - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QZ7uCib5L.jpg) ![SPIKE THE FINE MOTOR HEDGEHOG - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81VX8tYH3CL.jpg) ![SPIKE THE FINE MOTOR HEDGEHOG - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-bZv-48lL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: are the quills rubber or plastic?** A: The quills on mine are NOT rubber, but are a sturdy, hollow plastic. That being said, I'm sure a set of strong gums / teeth could make permanent indents in them because they are hollow. Each quill has a very tiny hole in each end (1.5 mm wide), probably for manufacturing purposes, but it's big enough that saliva or bathwater could get trapped inside and grow gunk if you aren't careful. Each quill is 3 5/8" long. The circular part that pokes into the hedgehog body is about 5/8" in diameter and slides 1" into the body. The ergonomic end for little fingers to hold is a 7/8" x 5/8" oval. **Q: Is there a way to obtain replacement quills? We had emailed the listed address and the message was returned. Thank you!** A: Also came here with the same question **Q: How long can it be used?** A: Love this toy my grandson does it over and over! Not only good for colors but also numbers and coordination **Q: Is it good for travel?** A: Yes, the spikes fit into the shell for easy storage. If planning to use in a vehicle or airplane I would suggest a travel tray. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Juguetes de niños muy hermosos *by M***A on November 8, 2025* ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great toy for developing fine motor skills I bought this toy for my 2-year-old, and they loved it right away.

It’s the perfect amount of challenge for him but it’s also doable and he has fun doing it. It is a very good quality and durable toy. I like that you can store the spikes inside, making it portable and also easy to store and clean up. The spikes themselves have little grips on the end that make it easy for their little hands to grab. I’m happy I found a toy my son actually likes as they are always a hit or miss! ## Frequently Bought Together - Learning Resources Spike The Fine Motor Hedgehog - Toddler Montessori Toys, Stacking Shape, Gifts For Boys And Girls, Sorting And Matching Skill Activities, Educational Games, Kindergarten - Learning Resources Farmer's Market Color Sorting Set - Play Food for Kids, Toddler Learning Toys, Grocery and Kitchen Play Toys - Learning Resources Peekaboo Learning Farm - 10 Pieces, Ages 18+ Months Toddler Learning Toys, Counting and Sorting Toys, Farm Animals Toys, Easter Basket Stuffers​ --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/57643427-spike-the-fine-motor-hedgehog](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/57643427-spike-the-fine-motor-hedgehog) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
