Rainbow Sorting Set
MTA Teachers Resource Catalogue Page: 631
Rainbow Sorting Set is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
The Rainbow Sorting Set is a vibrant and engaging learning tool designed to help young children develop key early childhood skills through hands-on play. With 30 colourful counters in five fun shapes - sun, star, cloud, moon, and lightning bolt - and six bright colours, children can explore sorting, patterning, colour recognition, and basic counting. The included fine motor tongs are specially designed for small hands, offering an enjoyable way to build hand strength and coordination during sorting activities.
This set also features a cloud-shaped tray with built-in compartments for each colour, making clean-up simple and storage intuitive. The playful theme and variety of learning possibilities make it a perfect addition to early years classrooms, sensory corners, or small group learning activities.
Educational Benefits:
- Supports early maths development with sorting, patterning, and counting exercises
- Strengthens fine motor skills through tongs-based grasping and placing
- Encourages colour and shape recognition in a multi-sensory, visual format
- Builds early problem-solving and logical thinking during guided activities
Classroom & play activity ideas:
- Create sorting races where children use tongs to match counters to the correct colour slots
- Use the activity cards for shape or pattern-based matching challenges
- Introduce early addition by combining counters and counting totals in each slot
- Have students create their own colour patterns and explain them to the group
Safety & Information:
- Ages: Suitable for children aged 3+ years
- Measurements: Assembled tray approx. 31(L) x 19(H) cm; counters approx. 3-4 cm wide
- Includes: 30 shape counters, 5 double-sided activity cards, 1 pair of fine motor tongs, and 1 sorting tray with built-in compartments
- Contains small parts; adult supervision recommended
- Made from durable, child-safe plastic for everyday classroom use
