Our Cylinder Blocks are made of solid beechwood, and each block is designed to hold 4 cylinders of varying height and diameter. Specially designed for toddlers ages 18 months to 3 years.
Our Cylinder Blocks are made of solid beech wood and crafted to a high quality smooth finish.
Information: The cylinder blocks are ten wooden cylinders of various dimensions that can be removed from a fitted container block using a knobbed handle. To remove the cylinders, the child tends to naturally use the same three-finger grip used to hold pencils.
Several activities can be done with the cylinder blocks. The main activity involves removing the cylinders from the block and replacing them again in the spot that one got them from. The control of error is constituted in the child's inability to replace a cylinder in the wrong hole.
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.
Graduated Cylinders are a must have for any science lab! These durable polypropylene cylinders come in calibrations of 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500 and 1000 millilitres for volume experiments and beyond. Graduated Cylinders are autoclavable.
4 sets of 10 cylinders varying in height and/or diameter in each set.
Each set is in a separate wooden box with the lid painted the same color as the cylinders: red, green, yellow and blue.
Develop child's visual perception of dimension. It also provide experiences in comparison, and grading - indirect preparation for mathematics.
Dimensions of each wooden box: 6.5 x 4.5 x 2.75 Inches
