The cards provide clear visual support during exercises with the Pink Tower and help the child check and refine their perception of size and gradation.
Montessori sensory education is based on the idea that children learn best through their own experience. The cards encourage active observation and comparison – skills especially important around ages 2–6.
High-contrast graphics help the child focus on shape and size. Suitable for individual work as well as guided activities in a Montessori environment.
Sensory education in the Montessori approach gives the child the opportunity to gain clear and conscious information from the surrounding environment through the senses. Maria Montessori believed that a child perceives with all senses from birth – exploring their surroundings, “studying” them, and gradually beginning to understand them better. Thanks to this, the child becomes a small sensory explorer.
Control cards for the Pink Tower serve as a practical aid when working with the material: the child can compare, check, and refine their perception of size and gradation. The most sensitive period for sensory development is approximately from 2 to 6 years – this is exactly when it is appropriate to offer children as many opportunities as possible for active discovery.
