Didactic Board for Basic Skills Training with Lacing

Develop fine motor skills, patterns, and concentration

The Didactic Board for Basic Skills Training with Lacing helps children develop manual dexterity, coordination, and creativity through lacing and visual composition activities.

Suitable for children aged 3 and above, this resource invites children to thread the cords through the shapes and attach them to the base, creating compositions, patterns, and sequences. The process requires concentration, precision, and movement control, making it an excellent activity for training fine motor skills and preparing the hand for more complex tasks.

An educational resource for shapes, colours, and symmetry

This didactic board allows for much more than just threading pieces. Children can select shapes, organise them into regular patterns, and even try to build symmetrical compositions. As they gain confidence, they begin to create their own designs and sequences, exploring different combinations of colours and shapes.

At the same time, the resource helps reinforce vocabulary related to geometric shapes and colours, while also promoting observation, spatial reasoning, and creativity. It is an excellent option for manipulative activities in an educational context.
