Little Learning Tinker Tray

A little tray for big discoveries!

What is it?

Meet our Little Learning Tinker Tray! A thoughtfully designed, four compartment learning resource created to encourage hands-on exploration, playful learning and independent discovery.

Featuring three smaller compartments and one larger working space, this versatile tray provides endless opportunities for little learners to explore early literacy, mathematics and much more.

What can it be used for?

The beauty of our Little Learning Tinker Tray is its flexibility! Here are just a few ways to explore:

• Phonics & Early Literacy: Build CVC words, practise segmenting and blending, explore letter recognition and match sounds to objects.

• Early Maths: Explore counting, number recognition, number bonds, simple addition and subtraction.

• Sorting & Matching: Organise objects by colour, shape, size or category.

• Fine Motor Development: Encourage little hands to pick up, position and manipulate small learning resources.

• Sensory & Loose Parts Play: Combine with suitable sensory materials, counters, natural treasures or other play resources.

• Independent Learning: Create simple, self-directed activities using flashcards, letters, numbers and resources you already own.

What is it made from?

Each tray is carefully 3D printed in the UK using PLA, a plant derived plastic commonly made from renewable materials such as corn starch.

Lightweight, sturdy and reusable, our trays are designed to support repeated learning experiences.
