Wooden Montessori Sorting Tray - QToys | Wooden Toys NZ

Invite curious tamariki to classify, count and explore with this beautifully crafted wooden Montessori sorting tray.

Seven round wells plus a long trough create an inviting canvas for loose parts, natural treasures or colourful counters, supporting open-ended play across home and classroom settings. Children refine pincer grasp, hand-eye coordination and early maths language as they move items from bowl to bowl, while educators love how easily the tray anchors sensory invitations or practical life activities.

Crafted from sustainable plantation timber and finished with child-safe oils, it is sturdy enough for everyday use yet light enough for little hands to carry from shelf to table. 

A timeless educational toy that grows with your child’s developmental journey, and easy to repurpose.
