This three-dimensional puzzle is deceptively tricky: your child must first identify which of the two dowels to use for each opening, then slide it into the second wooden base before it fits all the way. The Wooden Posting Stand Encourages hand-eye coordination with a fine-motor challenge that builds resilience and problem-solving strategies.

How to do it:
- Give the empty stand to your child and hand them a single dowel, asking if they can try to fit it in— Starting with a thin dowel will allow them to fit into any whole.

- Next, hand them a thick dowel; This will likely be more of a challenge.

- If they struggle to get the dowels into the slot in the base, show them that they need to be posted straight down; the dowel Won’t fit into the second layer if it’s at an angle.
