Description
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 4 consists of eight natural wood blocks measuring 5 cm x 2.5 cm x 1.25 cm, all contained in a wooden slide-top box. The pieces can be assembled together into a simple 5 cm cube or any variety of other forms. Gift 4 can be used to introduce the concepts of fractions and proportions in the way that the dimensions of the blocks relate to each other.
