Peekaboo Gnome Homes Sorting Set

These little characters look like they’ve stepped straight out of a nursery rhyme! Each colourful house matches a gnome in the same colour, and both are marked with numbers for extra learning fun.  

Includes 5 houses and 5 gnomes.

The activity is wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn:

• Supports visual perception.
• Stimulates hand-eye coordination, which is used for instance when we throw, catch, or kick the ball that comes flying towards us in PE class, or when we cut an accurate line with scissors or want to pour a glass of water without missing.
• Stimulates your child's number recognition and counting skills and basic understanding of math.

Suitable for ages 18 mos. to 4 yrs.

Practising how to sort and categorise objects strengthens your child’s ability to sort through the many impressions they experience every day. Categorizing and sorting are quite simply a way of learning and comprehending new words, concepts, and experiences. In order to understand what something is and what it means, we first need to know how it differs from something else.

Once your child learns to understand organising and sorting as a tool for getting an overview of tasks and activities, that skill will help them stay organised and calm in many situations – going to the recycling depot, sorting laundry, understanding equations, and much more.

Do you know Learning Resources?

As you can tell from their name, it's essential for Learning Resources to create materials that make learning fun for children.

In particular, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) is at the centre at Learning Resources. For instance, your child can learn to explore and experiment, build robots, and learn to code. For teachers and educators, Learning Resources is a learning goldmine. Sorting animals, coding dinosaurs, and math games can really spice up the teaching.
