Life cycles are a popular topic in the Montessori education.
Explaining and illustrating life cycles can be an important milestone for children, helping them to learn how better respect and care for nature.
Our life cycle tray helps to explore the wonderful rhythms of nature. It is double-sided with 4 sections on one side and 5 sections on the other side.
You can use it with life cycle figurines (like the Safari Life Cycle resources) or with three-part cards.
The tray comes with 4 sets of life cycle three-part cards: turtle, ant, salmon, and apple tree.
Like all our toys, the tray is 100% safe. It is made of plain beech wood and varnished with raw linseed oil.
