This beautiful virtual busy board is great for helping your little ones build fine motor skills while introducing them to the concept of cause & effect through engaging audio and visual interactions. It also makes an excellent sensory fidget toy for older children.

Finely Crafted:
The Fritz-Craft Busy Board is built from high-definition photographs of real switches, buttons, LED lights and faders. It also uses pristine recordings of the actual sounds made by these buttons and switches. This all adds up to create an immersive and sensory rich play environment.

Features:
The LED busy board includes 3 Rocker Switches, a guitar pedal 3-pole switch, an Atari 2600 style slide switch, and an arcade momentary switch. In addition to all of the colorful virtual LED and incandescent lights, there is a fader for adding reverb (echo) to all of the sounds made by the switches.

Non-Addictive:
The Fritz-Craft LED Busy Board is a virtual toy. It is not a game. This means it is thoughtfully designed to be attractive, engaging, and educational without the addictive reward elements of gaming apps. The board’s calming and natural interface encourages exploration over stimulation. We recommend putting your iPad in Guided Access mode and leaving the board out with other toys at play time!

Great For Travel:
Many children love to use their real-life LED busy boards at home but it can be hard to travel with these bulky wooden toys. The Fritz-Craft Busy Board allows your kiddos to have access to one of their favorite at-home-toys anytime and anywhere. It’s great for family vacations, office visits, or just about any place you can travel with an iPad.

Two Virtual Busy Boards Included:
There is the full busy board including all buttons, switches, lights and the fader, as well as a simplified board for the youngest of tykes to start learning with just a few simple switches.

Inspired by Maria Montessori:
Created using lessons learned from “The Montessori Method” (an excellent read for all
humans), the Fritz-Craft LED Busy Board is a modern twist on the button and zipper practice boards employed at Maria Montessori’s schools. While not exactly the same, we strive to stay true to these principles and the practical learning roots of Montessori.

Our little Fritz Pod has grown up so much since he first started playing with the LED Busy Board prototypes and we hope that your little ones will have just as much fun as he has!
Many Thanks from our Fritz-Craft team,
Jesse, Katie, Kiersten, Jennifer, and of course Fritz :)
