Bring vibrant colour, sensory exploration and open ended play to your learning environment with the Rainbow Wooden Balls. Made from beautifully smooth solid beechwood, this tactile set includes 14 wooden balls, with two in each of the seven rainbow colours. Their natural finish highlights the wood grain, creating a warm and inviting resource that supports sensory, mathematical and imaginative learning.
Children will love rolling, holding and manipulating the balls, exploring movement, weight, balance and colour. Ideal for loose parts play, heuristic exploration and small world setups, the balls can be used for counting, sorting, sequencing, matching, pattern making and early STEM concepts. They also pair perfectly with the Rainbow Architect range and other Rainbow Wood resources, making them a versatile addition to any early years setting.
These calming, tactile balls encourage curiosity, fine motor skills and collaborative play while offering a rich sensory experience suitable for young children from 10 months onwards.
