The Montessori Wooden Cyliner Knobs teaches kids to distinguish and differentiate heights and dimensions. This also develops their pincer grip, which is an indirect pre-writing skill.
The set comes with four blocks:
1. Block 1 varies in height and diameter. As the the diameter decreases, the height also decreases.
2. Block 2 also varies in height and diameter. This time, as the diameter decreases, the height increases.
3. All cylinders in Block 3 have the same diameter but have different heights.
4. In Block 4, all have the same heights but different diamaters.
Recommended for kids 3 years old and above.
