| "I am thinking that this is going to be the strangest compliment for your product. I own a Macaw and always look for toys in places other than pet stores. I was in a local store "Play and Learn " which sells educational toys. I went to buy wooden blocks for my parrot and spotted the Tangle at the cash register. It seemed interesting so I bought one for my parrot thinking if it lasted 15 minutes then she would still have fun with it. To my surprise it has lasted almost 3 months and it isn't that she broke it rather we have lost many of the parts.
She loves to take it apart and move it into different shapes. Giving her hours of fun. For a toy to stand up to the beak of a Macaw is saying something. I will be looking for the larger ones for her. She is learning her colors and triese very hard to put them back together.
Thanks for making not only a good toy but one that is durable for a parrot even though I know that wasn't your intention.

| "My nine-year-old son is diagnosed w/ ADHD - who isn't these days??- and my daughter who is four has mild CP. The Tangles are perfect for both of them, each for different reasons. For my son, it gives him something to do w/ his hands, especially in the car when he'd normally be tormenting his little sister or monkeying with the window controls or repeatedly tugging on his seat belt. For my daughter, it's simply fun. She has a glitter Tangle and a pink Tangle and to her, they are just fun little toys to carry around in her various pocketbooks. But the Tangle is SO good for her fine motor skills.
My son uses his Tangles a lot, usually sitting at his desk struggling through homework, and when my daughter sees his Tangle, she goes to find one of hers and starts toying around with it, which is awesome. I'm going to order a bunch of Tangle stuff for the kids for Christmas. Thanks SO much." |

| "I am a professional pianist and often, during travels, I find it difficult to keep with a practice schedule. Having recently discovered a Tangle toy I must say that I am truly delighted.
The first time that I used it, I could not put it down, and now, I am addicted. I find that not only do I get a really good
hand and finger workout, but somehow, my technique at the piano seems to have improved quite dramatically because
my fingers and hands are becoming conditioned to a higher degree. As a result of the Tangle toy, I find that my playing is becoming
a lot more effortless.
The Tangle toy is also extremely relaxing and meditative....Very therapeutic.
Thank you for producing such an innovative and effective toy.

| "As a first year teacher, I gave a Tangle to my student and witnessed an amazing transformation. The student was able to concentrate better on lessons. If you are a teacher, or have a child who can't sit still, this is a must have!" |

| "I handed the Tangles out to teachers in the lower, middle, and upper classrooms for their students. As I predicted, the Tangles were a hit. Teachers as well as students were approaching me because they wanted their own Tangle." |

| "I have been a child psychologist for 25+ years and for the last 20 of those years I have had a yellow neon Tangle in my office. Over the years, there have been countless little hands that have played with the Tangle while they talk about school, girl problems, and parent problems." |

| "I was giving a demonstration of behavior control for better communicative intentions to a group of speech language clinicians and teachers. There was a student present who was diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder. I took out my Tangle toy. After demonstrating how it could be manipulated, I gave the Tangle to the child. His behavior began to change as he manipulated the Tangle toy. Thanks for the Tangle toy reward system!" |

| "I am amazed! I have been teaching seven years. I have never found a more positive approach to helping ADHD diagnosed children learn than when I experimented with a Tangle toy. Wow! Children who need to move something enjoy using a Tangle toy. Children who didn't know they needed to move use a Tangle toy too!" |

| "I am a teacher at El Mirage Elementary in Arizona working with 5th to 8th grade students with emotional and learning disabilities. I love to use brain-stretching techniques with the students and recently showed them a Tangle. It was a hit! I use them for topics such as math and reasoning skills to spatial perception and even learning patience." |

| "Hi, I am a teacher and I first saw Tangles at a conference. I use them daily for my students who can't keep their hands to themselves and who need something to manipulate. Many teachers have asked about them, even the District Director." |
