Please note:
Montessori materials are NOT toys, but educational materials. Proper use requires appropriate training.
Montessori materials may contain small, rough, sharp, or other elements that could cause injury or damage if used improperly.
It may therefore only be used by children under the supervision of appropriately trained persons and in an appropriate environment.
With this exercise, the child perfects their hand-eye coordination, builds hand muscles and dexterity, and practices fine motor skills with the bolts using the three-finger grip. This is essential for a relaxed and secure pencil grip later on.
