Material Description:
The Three-Drawer Object Box is a beautifully crafted Montessori-inspired material designed to
support the development of fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and colour recognition in
infants aged 6 months and up. This educational toy features a box with three hinged drawers that
arch outward. The drawers can be opened to retrieve objects placed inside, encouraging the infant
to develop their grip, wrist movements, and coordination through simple actions of placing and
pulling.
The material not only promotes physical skill development but also helps with colour recognition as
the child interacts with objects of varying colours. As the child becomes familiar with the basic task,
you can increase the complexity by adding more objects or using different coloured objects for each
drawer, creating a natural progression in the child’s learning experience.
Box with Bins
- Hand-Eye Coordination: The act of placing objects into the drawers and pulling them out
helps strengthen the child’s eye-hand coordination and fine motor skills, especially grip and
wrist movements. - Motor Skill Development: The toy encourages the development of the child’s fine motor
skills, refining their ability to manipulate objects and engage in purposeful movements. - Colour Recognition: Placing different coloured objects into each drawer introduces the child
to primary colour recognition, adding an early learning element to the experience. - Increasing Complexity: As the child becomes more comfortable with the task, you can
increase the complexity by adding more objects, changing the colours, or introducing new
ways to manipulate the drawers. - Sensory Exploration: The simple yet engaging activity offers the child a sensory experience
that builds their concentration and understanding of object permanence and spatial
relationships.
