Developed in the early 1800s by early childhood education pioneer Friedrich Fröebel, the Fröebel Gifts (“gabe” in German) are a series of simple toys and exercises which focus on geometric forms, colours and creativity.  Gift 10 consists of small wood discs, sixty of each in eight different colours. The discs are 1 cm in diameter and come in a divided box with lid measuring 30 cm x 16 cm (about 12" x 6").
