Montessori 100s Board with Felt Balls

The Montessori 100s Board with Felt Balls is a classic, open‑ended learning resource designed to support a wide range of early maths activities, as well as colour matching and pattern exploration. Inspired by Montessori principles, this hands‑on board invites children to learn through repetition, order, and purposeful play.

The wooden board features 100 evenly spaced holes, perfectly sized for placing the included 100 earth‑tone felt balls. Children can use the board to practise counting, sequencing, and grouping, while also exploring patterns, symmetry, and simple maths concepts. The calm, natural colour palette supports focused learning without visual overstimulation.

Suitable for both independent exploration and educator‑guided activities, this versatile resource grows with the child, offering increasing challenges as understanding develops. Board measures 26 x 26 x 1.5cm. Ages 3yrs+.
