Product Specifications The Montessori Fishbone Color Matching Set is a vibrant, multi-functional educational toy designed to support foundational learning through hands-on play. This wooden set features a fish-shaped base with color-coded slots, matching colored sticks ("bones"), and a set of sequencing cards to guide play. Children can match sticks to the correct colored slots, follow pattern cards, or use the sticks independently for open-ended math and shape-building activities. The toy supports a wide range of developmental skills in line with Montessori principles of self-directed, tactile learning.
