Imbucare Box with Large Cylinder
Support your infant’s early development with this classic Montessori object permanence material.
The Imbucare Box with Large Cylinder is thoughtfully designed for babies aged 6 to 12 months, offering the opportunity to explore hand-eye coordination, spatial awareness, and the foundational concept of object permanence.
This set includes:
- A sturdy wooden box with a round hole on the top and a front door
- A large red wooden cylinder that is easy for small hands to hold and drop into the hole
The larger size of the cylinder makes it easier to insert than smaller cylinders or prisms, making this an ideal first material for infants just beginning to refine their motor skills.
As the child gains confidence and control, they can progress to more challenging materials such as the Imbucare Box with Small Cylinder, which requires more precision and finger dexterity.
Montessori Benefits:
- Develops object permanence through repetition
- Builds fine motor control and coordination
- Encourages focus, intentional movement, and early problem-solving
- Prepares the child for more complex materials as they grow
Perfect for home use or Montessori infant classrooms.
