Montessori Colour Box 2 - 11 Colour Pairs

Deepening Chromatic Discrimination

Following mastery of Colour Box 1, Colour Box 2 introduces the broader colour spectrum: red, yellow, blue, orange, green, purple, pink, brown, grey, black, and white. By pairing and comparing 22 identical wooden tablets, children systematically categorise nuances across the chromatic spectrum.

Key Learning Objectives

• Comprehensive Colour Literacy: Broadens colour vocabulary to encompass secondary hues and subtle neutral shades.
• Visual Comparison & Order: Pairing tablets sharpens the child's eye for subtle differences and complementary shades.
• Colour Mixing Foundations: Children discover how primary colours combine to create secondary colours (e.g. yellow and blue make green).
