Montessori 3 Shape Puzzle
MTA Teachers Resource Catalogue Page: 558
Montessori 3 Shape Puzzle is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Montessori 3 Shape Puzzle is a charming and educational toy. This simple yet engaging puzzle is perfect for developing hand-eye coordination and motor skills in young children. The chunky puzzle pieces are designed to be easy for tiny hands to grasp and handle, making it an ideal choice for early learners. This puzzle is an excellent learning resource that encourages young children to explore, inquire, discover and understand the world around them through play. Engaging with the puzzle helps children develop essential cognitive and physical skills while allowing them to improvise and imagine, helping them connect with their social and physical environments in meaningful ways. Designed to be welcoming, playful, safe and interactive, supporting the core development of sight, sound, touch, and both gross and fine motor skills in babies and toddlers. The Montessori 3 Shape Puzzle exemplifies these qualities, providing a robust and engaging early learning experience. Free from harmful chemicals and made from high-quality timber, it showcases the natural beauty of the wood through premium craftsmanship. This toy has passed the international standards of toy safety (ISO8124 part 1), offering both educational value and peace of mind.
Educational benefits
- Develops hand-eye coordination as children line up each shape with the matching space in the base.
- Builds fine motor skills and grip strength as little hands grasp, lift, rotate and place the chunky puzzle pieces.
- Supports early cognitive development, including problem-solving and visual perception, through matching and trial-and-error play.
- Encourages exploration, inquiry and imagination as children experiment with shapes and use them in simple pretend-play scenarios.
Classroom & play activity ideas
- Present the puzzle on a low shelf as part of a Baby Deluxe area so children can independently choose and repeat the activity.
- Sit alongside a child and name each shape and colour as they place it, building early language and shape recognition.
- Combine the shapes with other loose parts on a mat, inviting children to trace around them on paper or arrange them into simple pictures.
- Use the puzzle during small, calm focus times to support concentration and gentle one-on-one interactions.
