Double Touch Switch

Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.

Double Touch Switch Helps Shape Motor Skills

This cleverly designed switch can activate a toy or device only when both metal plates are touched simultaneously by any body parts. Can also be used to provide group socialization skills. If a group of children hold hands, and the first and the last child each place one hand on a plate, the unbroken circle of energy will activate the switch. Has a 1/8" plug.
