Children connect the gears on the pegs and, when one gear is turned, they can observe the movement of the connected parts of the mechanism.
The gears can be arranged on the wooden board in various ways or stacked into towers. Each arrangement brings a new play challenge.
Handling the pegs and gears practices fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination while playfully introducing children to the principles of mechanisms.
The Masterkidz Montessori gear board is a creative manipulative toy for little builders. The wooden base features holes for pegs onto which children place colorful gears. Once they are properly connected, simply turn one gear and the movement is transferred to the other parts of the created mechanism.
Children can arrange the gears next to one another on the surface of the board or stack them to create three-dimensional towers. Each new arrangement produces a different result, encourages patience and naturally introduces children to the principle of motion transfer.
