http://www.assistireland.ie/index.asp?locID=1653&docID=1999

This product consists of a piece of wood with four vertical, bendable rods attached to it. The board comes with ten colour-coded balls, which slip onto the flexible rods. The user sorts the rubber balls out by colour and threads them onto the appropriate wooden rod. This device helps to improve the user's sorting skills, counting skills and hand and eye coordination
