Montessori Wooden Number Learning Game – Maths Counting & Fine Motor Skills Toy

The Montessori number learning game is an educational toy specially designed for children aged 4 to 6 years. It supports fine motor development, manual dexterity, hand-eye coordination, concentration and practical skills. Below are the key features and benefits:

1. Safe Wooden Material

The game is made from high-quality wood with smooth, rounded and splinter-free edges to help reduce the risk of injury.
It is odourless and painted with eco-friendly, water-based colours that are safe for children.

Note: Due to the small wooden balls (15 mm diameter), use for children under 3 years should only take place under adult supervision to prevent swallowing.

2. Skill Development

Fine Motor Skills: Picking up and placing the small wooden balls with tweezers, spoons or chopsticks helps strengthen fine motor control.

Hand-Eye Coordination: Accurately placing the balls into the grooves of the number cards improves coordination between eyes and hands.

Concentration: The activities require patience and focus, supporting the development of attention skills.

Early Maths Skills: Working with number cards and solving simple calculations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) helps build a foundation in mathematics.

3. Multiple Ways to Play

Number Cards with Grooves: The cards feature small grooves where colourful wooden balls can be placed precisely, helping children visually understand numbers and quantities.

Maths Practice: The balls can be used as counting aids to practise basic mathematical operations.

Creative Play: Children can also sort the balls by colour or create their own patterns for open-ended learning.

4. Recommended Age

This game is ideal for children aged 4 to 6 years, as it supports both motor and cognitive development during this important learning stage.
