Object permanence is a developmental milestone in which a baby understands that things still exist when out of sight. It underpins games like peekaboo and eases separation worries when a parent leaves the room. Cuddle Family's Secure Box turns it into a wooden ball-drop toy for 0 to 2 years.
Object permanence is the idea that things still exist when a child cannot see them.
Peek-a-boo, hiding toys and simple wooden games train it through play.
Most children grow this skill through the first two years — follow their pace.
The ball disappears into the box and reappears at the front. Repeated, it shows the child that a hidden thing comes back, the same lesson as a parent leaving and returning. That is why The Secure Box is described as helping children understand feelings about surprises and separation [1].
