Description
The Spindle Boxes represent a parallel exercise in associating the numerals with the proper quantities. This time the numerals are in a fixed order and the quantities are loose.
The first compartment is labeled 0 and this is the child’s first introduction to this symbol. He usually wants to put a spindle in this compartment but has to learn that Zero means none or nothing.
This activity has ten compartments labeled with the figures Zero through Nine. The 45 spindles are kept in a separate box for the exercise of inserting a spindle in the relevant compartment, i.e. one single spindle in compartment numbered 1.
Features
- The Spindle Box is made in birchply with 10 seperate compartments.
- 45 loose beechwood spindles are carefully shaped to be consistent whilst being able to carefully stack in the compartment.

The spindles are incredible quality. I am so intrigued to know how they make them the shape that they are. I have previously tried to make them myself, but once you see this set, you will never want to try and make your own material again. They fit so nicely in the box when placed inside. And they are easy to get out again.
