Color tablets
What your child practices
Seeing color and nothing else: every tablet has the same size and the same wooden ends, so color is the only thing that differs. First three colors, then eight, then seven shades of one color from dark to light.
How to use it together
Show it once: pick up a tablet and set it under the one with the same color, slowly and without talking. Two of a color join into one long bar. A tablet that is not the partner rocks, tips off and goes back to the shelf; there is no need to point this out. The three little boxes on the floor hold the three sets, and your child can open any of them at any time. The green arrow mixes everything up to start again.
