Montessori fit the shape – Educo

Inspired by the Nienhuis Montessori 3D object fitting exercise, fit the shape is an educational Montessori sensorial baby toy from the Educo Montessori toys range for children aged 0-3 years that develops the young childs’ coordination skills.

When children are around 7–11 months, they enjoy taking things apart and putting them back together again. They also discover their ability to hold two objects at the same time. and start exploring fitting objects in a recipient.

By eight or nine months, babies gain the ability to explore putting a wooden egg in a cup and taking it out again. Putting a ball in a cup and removing it is a new experience, because the child has to turn over the cup to remove the ball. Putting a cube in a box is even more challenging because it is necessary to line up the corners of the box and cube for success.

Fit the shape helps develops motor skills, eye-hand coordination and coordination of both sides of the body as the child fits the shapes together. It also lays the foundation of recognition of shapes.

This set is made from FSC-certified beechwood and comes in 100% recycled and plastic-free packaging.

Educo fit the shape is suitable for children aged 7-11 months.
