Product Overview
The Baric Tablets introduce and refine the concept of the baric sense. While blindfolded, the child endeavors to discern the weight of the tablets. Error is controlled by the color of the wooden tablets, the lightest color being the lightest weight to the darkest color being the heaviest weight. The set consists of one box with three compartments containing ten each of light, medium and heavy weight tablets. Each tablet is 8x6 cm.
