The pincer grasp develops after the palmar grasp (see our listing for the Montessori Palmar Grasp block). This material should be offered at around 9 months when you begin to notice the child working hard to grasp objects with the thumb and forefinger. Children love to practice this grasp, and this material is perfect for helping them perfect it.
These blocks are made of solid wood and sealed with a beeswax/oil sealant so they are totally non-toxic.
The dimensions are 2.25''L X 1.75''W.
Made of ash with a maple rod.
