Cerebral Palsy Toys Amazon
This whole site is largely dedicated to listing Cerebral Palsy toys on Amazon that we have purchased over time as part of the rehabilitation process of our daugther with Cerebral Palsy, and it is an AMAZING source to search for suitable toys. It can however be quite overwhelming at first, and one of the main goals of this site is to help narrow down the search for toys that might be suitable based off of our experience.
We of course have our main Cerebral Palsy Toys page which provides an extensive list of toys we’ve used and ways to use them to help make therapy fun and enjoyable, whilst working toward your goals, but we’ve also included some popular options below.
One thing to note when shopping for Cerebral Palsy Toys on Amazon, is there can be some large price fluctuations depending on when you are shopping, the availability and age of the toy, or possibly discontinuation/replacement of the product. If the price seems expensive definitely shop around, or search on the site further to see if you can find any other options or similar items. Our process also involves buying items that seem reputable and where possible, have a decent number of positive reviews.
We’ve included a handful of products below, but also some of our go to brands at the start as we’ve found that if a brand has a toy that’s suitable, they’ll often have a variety of toys that can be used for the purposes of cerebral palsy rehab/play. Search our site for Learning Resources, Melissa & Doug, Orchard Toys to view some great options.

Spike the Fine Motor Hedgehog
This will forever be one of our favourite cerebral palsy toys – it is colourful and fun, and has a variety of uses that you can adapt depending on the goal you’re working on, or your child’s ability.
We use it for fine motor skills, gross motor skills with banging, and you can easily add/remove difficulty with clever placement.

Melissa & Doug - Alphabet Nesting & Stacking Blocks
Stacking blocks are always popular, and we found these great because they’re made of cardboard but are sturdy and well made. They are colourful, light, and educational with letters and pictures.
We’d stack these into towers and then knock them over, use them to drop items into, or hide under them.

Coogam Bee Hive Fine Motor Tweezer Game
This is a fun little game that has a few options to use. Obviously the tweezer element requires decent co-ordination, but we used this toy early on to pick up bees off the table with her hand and drop them into the “hive” in their spots.
It’s quite cute and the bees are a good size (watch around small kids) and if you wanted to get tricky, you could transition from grabbing the body of the bees to a pincer grip on the wings.

Melissa & Doug Wooden Lacing Beads
Another classic fine motor game, quite simple in premise of holding the item and threading with the other hand. Threading seemed to be something our OT would work on so we grabbed this nice colourful set. Melissa & Dough are another great brand with quality toys, and this toy is no different.

Staedtler Noris Jumbo Markers
Not really a toy as such, but we really struggled to find markers that our daughter could open independently without getting them all over her due to small lids that most markers have.
These are our go to, and we’ve stocked up on them so they last us over time! Large lids make them easier to open, and they are easy enough to clean.
We recently made a cerebral palsy pencil grip and adaption to help where fine motor skills are a bit tricky.
