The Cross Over Car is a developmental toy that consists of a tiny car attached to a nylon cord. The cord runs through various tunnels and loops created on a felt mat. The child drags the car through the loops and tunnels. This helps facilitate pincer grasp, improve finger and bilateral manipulation, and develop finger strengthening.
