Rolling, Counting, and Cooperating on a Cozy Cloth Track
Unfold a world of gentle adventure with our Canvas Road‑Map & Wooden Car Game. Printed on soft, durable cotton (35 × 31 cm) and finished with a tidy drawstring edge, the mat features winding roads, a central roundabout, and six numbered parking bays. Six hand‑painted wooden cars—each in a harmonious pastel hue—pair with a smooth wooden die, inviting children to roll, drive, and park while absorbing early math concepts through meaningful movement.
Lightweight and foldable, this set slips easily into a tote for restaurant outings, playdates, or quiet afternoons at home. Rooted in Montessori principles, it nurtures independence, social grace, and joyful concentration—one smooth road at a time.
👶 Age Recommendation
Perfect for children 1 years and up, when the sensitive periods for number sense, cooperative play, and refined motor skills blossom.

Numeracy in Motion – Rolling the die and matching car numbers to parking bays builds one‑to‑one correspondence, quantity recognition, and early addition/subtraction.

-
Social Cooperation – Turn‑taking and shared storytelling foster patience, language growth, and respect for others.
