Sand salamander – long, flexible and surprisingly heavy
This magnificent salamander, a whopping 40 cm long, is a remarkable sensory friend. Weighing 800-1200 grams, it fits securely in the hands and provides an intense proprioceptive effect. Children immediately feel like they're actually holding something – which promotes calmness, concentration, and helps release tension.
The long, flexible shape invites you to explore it with both hands, knead it, or gently place it on your lap. The fine sand filling shifts subtly, creating a different sensation with every touch. This stimulates the sense of touch and makes the salamander a delight to feel, roll, or knead.
Thanks to its length, the salamander is also ideal for placing over arms or legs . Its soft weight can have a calming, almost blanket-like effect. A wonderful way to unwind, in the classroom, at home, or during therapy.
Moreover, the shape invites play: lay the salamander down and let it wiggle like a real one, use it as a "weight" in imaginative play, or make up stories together about adventures in the woods or by the river. This playfully creates space for movement, language, and creativity.

In short: the Sand Salamander combines sensory stimulation, motor skills training, and relaxation in one unique animal. A calm, playful companion that helps children feel, explore, and unwind.
