Montessori Object Permanence Box with Tray and Ball

Object permanence is the understanding that objects continue to exist even when they cannot be perceived (seen, heard, touched, smelled, or sensed in any way). This concept plays a significant role in the theory of cognitive development created by psychologist Jean Piaget. During the sensorimotor stage, which lasts from birth to around age two, Piaget suggested that children understand the world through their motor abilities such as touch, vision, taste, and movement.

The Object Permanence Box with Tray is the first and easiest level for children from 8 months to around one and a half years old. The child must take the ball and put it through the hole. This can be a challenge for little babies due to their limited eye-hand coordination. However, once the ball rolls out, they see it again, learning the concept of object permanence.

The set consists of a box with two holes and a tray, as well as a wooden ball. The item size is 11.8 x 5.9 x 4.3 inches. The Elite Montessori Baby Object Permanence Ball Push Toy is part of a range of products that includes Single/Multiple Shape Puzzles, a Coin Box Preschool Learning Material, a Ball Tracker, and a Wooden Movable Alphabet with Box.

The Object Permanence Box with Tray helps children develop precise hand movements, sending information to the brain and improving hand, wrist, and finger control, also known as "refined hand movements." With repeated use of this material, the child learns the satisfaction of achieving a goal on their own.

Please note that we have two versions of the wooden ball: the original colorway and a red colorway. The colorway selection is at our discretion.
