Beads

Besides bringing enjoyment, stringing beads has many developmental benefits including building fine motor skills, visual motor skills, and practicing hand-eye coordination.

Tongs

Using tongs helps children refine their transferring skills, develops a three-finger grip, introduces sorting, and helps them identify size, color and shapes.

Geometric Solids

The three-dimensional geometric solids engage children in tactile exploration and manipulation. They not only promote cognitive development but also enhance problem-solving skills and critical thinking abilities.

Touch Tablets

Sorting and pairing wooden tablets of various weights develops the child's tactical discrimination, keenness of perception and further develops the hand.
 

Learning From Peers

One of the benefits of a Montessori mixed-aged classroom is that younger children learn from their older peers. This in turn boosts the confidence of the older child and also helps create a cohesive community.

Knobless Cylinders

Knobless cylinders facilitate the observation and comparison of different series with each other. They also give the child a clearer idea about dimensions and their interplay and develop the mathematical mind.

Fractions

Children are able to sensorially explore fractions with insets. They place the one-fourth, one-third, and one-half pieces into the circles and learn how to make a whole.

Common Multiples

Multiplication charts help the child learn essential combinations for multiplication and prepare them for more abstract multiplication.
