Montessori Single Shape Puzzle – Circle

This single-shape wooden puzzle is one of the classic first Montessori materials for infants and toddlers. The circle is usually introduced first, as it is the easiest shape for little hands to recognize and place. Once the circle is mastered, children can progress to the square and triangle.

The puzzle includes 5 cardboard picture cards that can be changed and placed under the circle, adding variety and extending the activity.

Wooden Fraction Circle Raised Puzzle – Set of 2

Specially designed for toddlers ages 2–3, this set of raised wooden puzzles introduces early fraction concepts through hands-on exploration. Children grasp and place the large circle insets, building fine motor skills, hand–eye coordination, concentration, and independence—ideal for Montessori-inspired learning at home or in the classroom.

Cubes on Vertical Dowel

Support your toddler’s developing coordination and concentration with this foundational Montessori material.
Cubes on Vertical Dowel is designed for children aged 12 to 18 months and provides the opportunity to explore vertical motion, precise hand placement, and control of movement using simple wooden cubes and a central peg.

This material includes:

Three Discs on a Vertical Dowel

This Montessori-inspired material introduces toddlers to stacking, order, and eye-hand coordination.

Designed for children as young as 12 months, this activity invites the child to stack 3 wooden discs onto a central dowel. The material encourages repetition, concentration, and mastery of finger grasp and release.

Four Balls on Small Pegs

This early Montessori material is perfect for infants starting around 10–12 months.

It features a wooden board with four vertical pegs and four smooth wooden balls of the same size. As the child places each ball on a peg, the peg becomes visually hidden, helping the child experience how the center hole disappears and the shape appears whole. This activity encourages a deeper understanding of object permanence and spatial relationships.

This wooden Montessori box features five holes of different diameters on the top surface. Beneath the holes, there is a flat sliding plate that temporarily holds the cylinders in place. Inside the box is a slanted ramp.

The child places the five wooden cylinders (same height, different diameters) into the corresponding holes — but they don’t fall through immediately. The sliding plate underneath prevents them from dropping.
