Description
Activity sets are based upon the botany, and zoological puzzles, used in the traditional Montessori classroom. Introduce the Child to the hidden world of seeds, with this seed puzzle activity. This material, expands their knowledge of seeds; and their vocabulary skills; as they move from the concrete, through to the abstract materials.
In the 3 to 6 environment, the Child explores the elements of the seed puzzle (concrete material), moving onto this abstract material. Working with this material prepares the Child for reading; and (indirectly) writing; and enhances the Child’s enjoyment of learning. NOTE: the puzzle in the illustrations are sold separately.

I was impressed with the product. One of the cards was trodden on with a muddy foot. It was so easy to wipe clean. The cards are very durable.
