This stacking color sorter can be used progressively. Starting as a stacking tray it can be used to practice hand-eye coordination and stack discs on the dowels. As your child progresses, you can start to introduce color sorting and matching before progressing to practicing counting. 

  • Demonstrate how to remove the discs from the dowels. 
  • Demonstrate stacking the discs on the dowels. 
  • Remove the discs from the dowels and demonstrate organizing the discs by color on the floor. 
  • Consider demonstrating how to stack matching discs onto the same dowel. 
  • Use one-to-one counting when counting the disks.

Children's play should be monitored at all times.
