Customer Testimonials

"I feel more confident as a parent."

Grace's Strengths

3 years old
  • visual
  • body
  • music
I was told that my child is visually smart / body smart, so I included more visual and physical toys as well as activities for her. I could see this has increased her enthusiasm and ability in concentrating to play for a longer time duration. I feel more confident as a parent now that I understand my child's strengths.
Toy example: Medal Gacha

"Building on her strengths really helped my child grow!"

Elise's Strengths

4 years old
  • word
  • people
  • music
I found out that my daughter had high verbal and interpersonal intelligence, so I improvised stories and sang songs using the felt board theatre from TOY8. She instantly showed interest and is now constantly learning new words and making up stories that always amaze us.
Toy example: Felt board

"His mirror writing improved as his strengths were applied."

Adam's Strengths

5 years old
  • body
  • visual
  • nature
I was worried about my child's mirror writing, but it improved after playing with the blocks sent by TOY8. They suggested Tublock activities to build alphabet and numbers in three-dimensional because he had high level of spatial cognition and fine motor skills. This seemed to help him recognize the correct shape. He now loves writing letters to his friends.
Toy example: Tublock

"My child's screen time during lockdown has reduced!"

Ong's Strengths

4 years old
  • body
  • people
  • math
My son is now engaged in more physical activities after being told he has good gross motor skills. He loved the stepping balls from TOY8 and always sets challenges to compete with his sister. I was concerned about the increase of screen time for my child during lockdown, but I observed his time with the tablet has reduced since he started to spend more time applying his strengths in different activities.
Toy example: Stepping Balls
