The ultimate aim of this classic brown stairs activity is to refine the child's visual acuity and motor skills. In addition, they will be prepared for math and language skills.
The broad stairs are designed for children aged 3 to 6 years old. They will be able to distinguish objects of different sizes, be introduced to the concept of dimension, and enrich their vocabulary.
"The aim of this apparatus is the same: to aid visual discrimination of size or dimensions." Maria Montessori, The 1946 London Lectures
