Purchase this item and get 1 Bead - a worth of Use the Inset Board – 25 cm x 15 cm with the metal insets. As a 3-year old, one of the most important skills The Child has to develop is the finger grip and how to draw shapes. This will aid the Child in developing this skill.
A piece of paper is placed upon the inset board. The Child chooses the metal inset shape of their choice, and selecting the coloured pencil from the edge of the inset board, uses the shape to draw the outline.
The metal insets are a preparation for handwriting and for geometry, but they are equally important as a material children use for creative design. Look for combinations of geometric shapes, the use of negative space, and experimentation with shading and coloring as your child grows in his or her comfort with this simple and elegant Montessori material.

Montessori Monday: The Metal Insets – October 15, 2018|Catherine McTamaney
Simple geometric shapes and two or three colored pencils: who would imagine that such an unassuming combination could create such beautiful things. The metal insets draw the attention of the youngest children and still attract our most experienced students to create new combinations of color and shape.
One of the attractions to the Montessori Method is the extensive use of wood.
We use several types of wood, sourced from renewable sources, in the production of our Montessori Materials.
We ensure that the coatings and inks used are not only eco-friendly, but also non-toxic.
Our wooden products are manufactured by responsible partner factories both locally and abroad and ensure that fair labour practices are adopted.
