Product Description
The Montessori Knobless Cylinders with Control Cards is a comprehensive sensorial material designed to develop visual discrimination, sequencing, and fine motor skills. This set includes four boxes of color-coded cylinders—red, yellow, green, and blue—each representing variations in height and diameter. The accompanying control cards offer a visual guide for independent matching, comparison, and self-correction.
