Wooden Object Permanence Box with Ball
A Montessori object-permanence box. Baby posts the ball through the top; it rolls out of sight and returns on the tray.
A ball goes in the top, disappears for a heartbeat, and rolls out into the tray below. Your baby watches, reaches, and does it again, and again. This Montessori object permanence box is one of the classic first toys for a reason.
The whole-hand grasp to pick up the ball, the focus to follow it, the delight when it reappears: all of it is early development dressed up as a simple, lovely game.
