The pink tower – Gonzagarredi Montessori

The Gonzagarredi Montessori (GAM) pink tower is part of the sensorial range and represents a series of cubes which develops visual discrimination of size in 3 dimensions.

Exploration with this material prepares the child for mathematical concepts in the decimal system, geometry and volume. The pink tower consists of ten wooden cubes painted pink, increasing increments from 1 cm³ to 1000 cm³.

Gonzagarredi Montessori (GAM) defines itself as ‘the history of Montessori materials’ because it was in collaboration with this company that Maria Montessori produced her first wooden educational materials. The brand was founded in Italy in 1911 as ‘Ernesto Bassoli e Figli’, and afterwards “Società Anonima per il Materiale Montessori”, and is one of only three companies in the world that produce Montessori educational material with the supervision and certification of the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI), headquartered in Amsterdam.

Gonzagarredi produces children’s furniture and Montessori materials of the highest quality in natural wood and intentionally muted colours, all consistent with Maria Montessori’s guidelines and certified by AMI.

The Gonzagarredi Montessori pink tower is suitable for children aged 3-6 years.
