INTRODUCTION TO THE TOY
BillyBigWheelsisaremotecontrolcarthatmovesinvariousdirections:forwardstraight,
reversestraight,forwardleft,forwardright,reverseleftandreverseright.
Thankstoitssimple,easytousedrivingcommands,thevehiclecanbeusedbytwoyearolds
andupward.Atthisage,thechildcanbegintousetheremotecontrolbysimplypressingthe
forwardandreversebuttons,andwatchingthedirectionthecartakes.Thisexerciseisvery
importantbecauseitallowsthechildtoextenditseldofvisionanddevelopitseye-hand
co-ordinationskills.Furthermore,thevehiclecanbesteeredbysimplyturningtheremote
controlasifitwasadrivingwheel,whichmakesthetoyeasierandmorefuntouse.
Bytheageofthree,the child learnsto associatethedirectionselectedwiththeremote
controlunitwiththeeffectproduced(correspondingtothemovementofthetoy).Inthe
beginning,thechildlearnstocontrolthetoycaruntilitmeetsanobstacle.Atalaterstage,
itlearnstoco-ordinatepreciselythecorrectuseoftheremotecontrolunittoachievethe
desired direction.
