Montessori sorting tray

This beautiful open ended sorting can be used throughout the year for any seasonal activities.

January: Hibernation/adaptation/Migration
February: Shape sorting - Heart, square and circle in nature
March: Air, water and road transport
April: Color sorting of flowers
And so on...

Each tray has a sorting compartment and a labeling compartment. Labeling compartment is for cards or anything to indicate what goes in the sorting compartment.

Labeling compartment measure 1"x4"
Sorting compartment measures 4"x4"
Entire tray measures 14"x7"

I found 3 compartments to be a good balance but i can make 2 or 4.
