Description:
This set of Montessori wooden number building blocks combines early maths learning and hands-on play for toddlers and preschoolers, offering a playful way to explore counting, shapes and stacking. With 30 colour-coded pieces and a compact storage bag, it encourages fine motor skills and spatial thinking during everyday play.
Key Points
The blocks come in five vivid tones, with six blocks per colour to help introduce children to colour sorting and basic counting. Each cube measures 2.5 cm on each side, making them comfortable for small hands to grip, stack and arrange into simple patterns or towers. The surface is sanded smooth to avoid splinters and painted with water-based, child-safe paint, which reduces chemical concerns according to the manufacturer.
Play scenarios vary with age. For babies from 12 to 18 months, the focus is on tactile exploration and stacking, while older toddlers can practise counting and simple number puzzles. Parents and educators can use the set for short guided activities or free play, switching between structured tasks and open-ended construction. 🧩

Usage Recommendations
Rotate different play objectives to maintain interest, for example start a session with colour sorting, then move on to counting exercises and finally to creative building. For toddlers practising numeracy, lay out the blocks to form sequences and ask the child to find the next number or to assemble matching coloured towers. For travel or childcare settings the included bag keeps pieces together and makes the set easy to transport. 🚗
Consider that while the blocks are robust, they are small and not suitable for children who still put objects in their mouths. Additionally, the numeric puzzles may be more engaging for children aged 3 to 5 years when they begin to recognise digits and understand basic mathematical concepts, according to the manufacturer.
