DEVELOP FINE MOTOR SKILLS: The Montessori approach recognizes that a child’s potential for learning is greatest when provided with tactile, multisensory tools. A screw board capitalizes on this concept by helping children develop hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills while simultaneously training the muscles of the hand. All this while letting them experience the joy of twisting, turning and fastening nuts and bolts on their own and in a safe environment.
ULTIMATE PRACTICAL LIFE ACTIVITY: Children can develop real world skills with this hands-on, natural solid wooden screw board. Real tools. Real parts. Real wood. Dr. Montessori found that children thrive on accomplishments when they are able to complete real work with real tools and materials. That’s why the Montessori & Me screw board features all real components which are higher quality, work better and are more efficient.
QUALITY BUILT MATERIALS: The Montessori & Me screw board includes 5 unique fasteners (hex bolt, thumbscrew, wing nut, Phillips screw bolt, and Allen key bolt), each of which requires a different tool or hand and finger motion to fasten and unfasten. The 3 included tools are uniquely sized for small hands but quality built to stand the test of time.
