Development by Design toys encourage skill development through play. By incorporating therapeutic techniques into all products, DbD offers engaging ways for children of all needs & abilities to reap the benefits of both skill development and fun.

DbD products encourage the growth of cognitive, motor, emotional and social skills. Our toys are fun for children with a range of needs and grow with children as they develop. Toys target skills in ten distinct areas of development. The skill categories are clearly marked by icons on the packaging to make choosing the perfect toy as easy as possible. (Definitions of all skills are available at http://www.dbdtoys.com/skills.html.) All DbD toys are fun, educational, safe and affordable.

All DbD products are developed with a licensed occupational therapist specializing in working with children with special needs.
