More from the MuseumTour expert:
Children will improve fine-motor skills and eye-hand coordination as they are challenged to actually drill chunky, child-sized components into a sturdy activity board. During this type of manipulative play, preschoolers and older children alike will enhance their logical-mathematical intelligence by sequencing, problem-solving, and concentrating on patterns. This product also promotes quality independent play.

The set includes one reproducible blank grid for "make-your-own card" fun.
