Mentari: Counting Vegetables

Three little vegetables, growing right before your toddler's eyes.

The Wooden Counting Vegetables is a brilliantly simple early counting and stacking toy designed for toddlers from 12 months. The base has three pegs, and children stack the six colored disks onto the pegs to "grow" three little vegetables, finishing each one off with one of the three wooden leaf toppers. It's part stacking puzzle, part counting toy, and entirely satisfying for little ones discovering how things fit together.

What makes this toy so clever is how much it does at once. Children practice counting (one, two disks per peg), color recognition (six different colored disks), shape sorting (matching disk to peg), and fine motor control (threading disks onto pegs) — all in one small, beautifully made set.

Skills & development:

• Fine motor skills - threading disks onto pegs builds hand-eye coordination and grip
• Language and numbers - counting disks per peg builds first counting and number sense
• Cognitive and problem-solving - matching disk to peg builds early logic and pattern recognition
• Sensory play - bright colours and varied textures support visual development
