Manipulatives are instrumental in early development and are a must have for every classroom Kindergarten and younger. These items are useful for teaching sorting, classifying, basic math, sequencing, and fine motor development. When used in conjunction with our Teaching with Purpose products for early childhood classrooms, the Take Along Toolkit makes a perfect addition to a block or construction center, and the Sandwich Making Set goes great in dramatic play centers. Slightly older students will appreciate items such as the Pattern Blocks & Boards, Dry Erase Dice, or Abacus.
