Product Description
Nested Tower of Cubes
Tour de boites
The Nested Tower consists of a 1cm³ cube and a series of nine graduated boxes up to 10cm³.
The tower is used to develop visual and muscular discrimination of size in three dimensions and to develop co-ordination and fine motor control. It offers an early pre-maths experience of comparison and seriation, and the opportunity to use vocabulary of size.
Initially the tower is built with the cubes placed centrally on another. Later the tower is built with two flat sides and the smallest cube travels down the steps fitting each step exactly to reinforce the relationship between it and the change in size of the series of cubes.
The additional activity of returning the boxes to their nested state adds another dimension to this material, and makes it easier to store.
WARNING: Not suitable for 0-3 years - Small Parts: Choking hazard.
