Montessori Vertical Stacking Game - Pucks of Different Diameters

This painted wooden vertical puzzle adds an extra challenge: the three pucks have different diameters. Aligned with the Montessori progression, it allows children to develop their visual discrimination of sizes while perfecting their vertical nesting skills.

Montessori educational principles

This game introduces an additional challenge : the child must not only thread the pucks onto the vertical rod, but also consider the order (from largest to smallest or vice versa). This logical progression, following the initial practice of fitting identical pucks, develops reasoning skills and the ability to discriminate between sizes.

Educational benefits

  • Visual discrimination : Recognition and comparison of different sizes
  • Logical reasoning : Understanding of order and gradation
  • Hand-eye coordination : Precision of movement required to thread the pucks onto the rod
  • Spatial orientation : Understanding the concept of verticality and order
  • Fine motor skills : Manipulating pucks of different sizes
  • Vocabulary : Acquisition of the terms big/medium/small, bigger/smaller
  • Concentration : A more complex activity requiring thought
  • Autonomy : Self-correction possible thanks to the visible gradation
  • Montessori progression : Level 3 after the identical puck shape sorters

Technical specifications

  • Vertical rod : Insert from bottom to top in the correct order.
