Weight Tubes

The Weight Tubes Educational Set is a thoughtfully designed learning tool that introduces children to the fundamental concepts of weight and comparison. This set comprises 12 plastic tubes of varying weights, all uniform in size, mounted on a sturdy wooden stand. Children can explore the differences between heavy and light objects by engaging in hands-on activities that promote critical thinking and observation skills. Wooden stand measures 38 x 13cm. Ages 3yrs+

Key Educational Benefits:

• Understanding Weight Concepts: Children learn to differentiate between heavy and light objects, enhancing their grasp of basic weight concepts. 
• Promoting Abstract Thinking: The set encourages abstract thinking by challenging children to compare objects of equal size but different weights, fostering cognitive development.
• Enhancing Vocabulary: Engaging with terms like "heavier," "lighter," "more than," and "less than" helps expand children's vocabulary and language skills.
• Supporting STEM Learning: As a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) resource, the set lays the groundwork for future scientific exploration and inquiry.
• Encouraging Observation and Sorting: Children practice sorting and categorising objects based on weight, honing their observation and classification skills.
• Scientific Inquiry: Encouraging children to hypothesise, test, and conclude fosters a scientific mindset and understanding of the scientific method.
