Description
What is a Pikler Play Cube?
The Pikler Play Cube is a cube version of the Pikler Triangle. Inspired by the design of Emmi Pikler, a Hungarian paediatrician who pioneered theories on child development in 1930s and 40s, the Pikler Triangle is associated with the Montessori philosophy which teaches children independent play, learning boundaries and problem solving. The Pikler triangle works as a foundation on which children reach development milestones.
Suitable for use from 6 months - as a crawling cube. At 9 months of age, as they begin to learn how to stand, babies may use the climber to pull themselves up on. At 1- 2 years of age, toddlers learn to climb up and down the cube, quickly fine-tuning their motor skills and by 3 - 5 years of age, they will be using the cube in creative ways that fosters their sense of imagination.
Leo + Cru’s range of Pikler Climbers are built to last, crafted with premium birch wood and finished with a child safe, non toxic, water based varnish.

Safety Information
Wonder Cube should always be placed on a non-slip, soft but sturdy surface during use. Never leave children unsupervised. We encourage children to explore the Climber independently, with adult supervision at a safe distance to assist when required.
Kindly note that each Leo + Cru product is unique due to the natural wood grain patterns of the timber so each Climber will have its own unique wood patterns and colour. We love the uniqueness of each of our pieces and hope you will too! A difference in colour tone is not considered a defect.
