Montessori Knobless Cylinders — 20 Piece Colorful Sensorial Set
Before a child can measure, they need to perceive. Before they can compare, they need to discriminate.
These 20 colourful knobless cylinders train the eye to notice fine differences in size, height, and diameter — one of the most foundational sensorial activities in the Montessori curriculum.
What's included 20 wooden knobless cylinders in 4 colour-coded sets of 5, stored in a drawstring cotton bag. Free shipping when purchased with another item.
The four sets
- Yellow — cylinders vary in both height and diameter
- Green — cylinders vary in both height and diameter
- Red — cylinders vary in diameter only
- Blue — cylinders vary in height only
Dimensions Largest cylinder: 3cm height x 3cm diameter · Smallest cylinder: 1cm height x 1cm diameter
Learning purposes ✓ Grading cylinders by size builds visual discrimination and fine perception ✓ Trains the eye to perceive fine differences in dimensions ✓ Comparing sets develops the ability to recognize similarities and differences ✓ Builds coordination of movement through careful, precise handling ✓ Works as an extension activity with Montessori cylinder blocks (sold separately)
How it's used
Build a tower Start with the largest cylinder, then place each next-largest concentrically on top — building a graduated tower from bottom to top.
Grade the cylinders Arrange all cylinders in order of size from largest to smallest, placing each one carefully so they touch one another in a graded line.

These mini cylinders are great for our Montessori-aligned homeschool. My 3.5yo really enjoys working with them.
