Heuristic Materials 

Heuristic Play is a wonderful opportunity to capitalize on children's curiosity about the objects that make up the world around them. There is no right way or wrong way to play with Heuristic Play resources, so everyone's ideas are equally valid and worthwhile. The open-ended nature of the resources means that all children can explore and investigate in their own way, applying their own creative ideas and building on their own experiences. All items come with what is shown in the images. Ages 1+ 

Great for practicing pre-handwriting skills, promoting concentration, creativity, hand-eye co-ordination and basic left/right co-ordination skills. Wonderful shapes and patterns can be drawn using glass nuggets, shells, or other materials. These exceptional trays are constructed of beech wood and feature a strong, durable safety-glass bottom.

All trays feature a built-in slot underneath the glass base where coloured paper and other materials can be inserted for added effect. Great for use with light tables and panels.
