Why should you get Montessori toys?
By Caroline Dianne Dunlap
Montessori toys follow a minimalist design style and allow for your kid to grow each of the 5 essential developmental areas: problem-solving skills, colors and shape identification, emotional expression, math capabilities, and basic social competences. Playing with the physical toys also allows children to sharpen their fine motor skills. Since about 85% of brain development happens before the age of 5, it is important to invest in toys that help your child grow cognitively.
Here at Steam & Steel Store, we want to contribute to a brighter future. This includes our mission to remember what came before us and invest in the future by selling ethically sourced, environmentally friendly products tailored to the youth of today. Our Summer Adventures Collection combines all of this with a twist of fun, featuring 3 Montessori toys that will be sure to help your child grow their mind while keeping them entertained.
Recognize patterns
Unleash your child’s creativity with this Montessori Mind Bender Set, a collection of flat wooden blocks of varying geometric shapes and colors. It comes with a set of cards to spark inspiration for pictures to make with the blocks. Playing with this set will teach your child to recognize and create patterns. They will also learn colors, label shapes, sort items, use geometry, and boost their creativity. This simple set gives your child the materials needed to turn a blank canvas into a vibrant piece of art.
Stimulate Senses
Nurturing your child's color perception is paramount. By acquainting them with a elements with a diverse array of shades and tones, you empower them to recognize the hues of all the colors of the rainbow! Our Rainbow Wooden Building Montessori Blocks, coming in 5 different variations, are designed to do exactly that. Playing with these blocks allows for your child to learn more colors and better conceptualize size relativity, two critical factors that will help kick-start their learning.
Enhance Problem-Solving Skills
This wooden Montessori block puzzle comes in a selection of 8 different designs featuring foods, animals, numbers, and everyday objects. With this puzzle, your child will be able to enhance problem solving skills while learning about categories, textures, and patterns. Each block in the set fits compactly in a puzzle box for easy clean up as well.
