Why Kids Can’t Get Enough of the Pink Tower

Is your child focused and curious? At Lavington Montessori, we use hands-on materials like the Pink Tower to turn learning into an adventure. These self-correcting materials let children learn through trial and error, building independence and confidence.


What’s so special about the Pink Tower?
It’s not just blocks! This brain-building powerhouse teaches size discrimination, precision, problem-solving, and fine motor control. Children learn resilience when they rebuild after a “crash.”


The secret ingredient? Independence!
Imagine your child saying, “I did it myself!” Self-correcting materials mean kids don’t need constant approval. They learn to assess their work and try again, building intrinsic motivation.


Want to try this at home?
Use different-sized cups and let your child pour water or rice inside them. It’s Practical life and Sensorial learning in action!


Visit Lavington Montessori Kindergarten and watch how the Pink Tower turns “I can’t” into “Let me try!”
Your child might just teach you something new.
