Sensory Box Mirabu
Mirabu is a sensory guessing box designed as a touch and guess game for children. Objects are placed inside the box, and a child reaches through covered holes to feel and describe what is hidden without looking. One panel is transparent, so other children can watch the game, give hints, or use the box as a theatre scene. The box is made of wood and plywood for everyday use and measures 225 by 345 by 209 millimetres. Colourful felt balls fill the holes in the lid, which can also support counting and colour recognition. Mirabu is flat-packed so children can assemble it themselves.
