Wooden Box with Ball and Coins
A Montessori wooden toy. Baby posts a wooden ball and three coins through the top, then opens the drawer to find them.
One box, two ways to play. The round ball rolls into its own hole and disappears; the flat coins slide into theirs. Then the drawer opens, and everything the baby just posted is waiting inside.
Imbucare is Italian for "to post", and that is exactly the task: this Montessori imbucare box is made for the deep attention a baby brings to discovering that hidden things come back.
