Specifications
The Teach Me Shapes Rubbing Plates set offers a fun, tactile, and inclusive way for children to explore shapes, textures, and patterns through hands-on art activities. This pack includes 16 rubbing plates, each measuring 10 x 13cm with a 0.305mm thickness, making them durable and easy to handle. Designed to engage children of all ages and abilities, these plates encourage creative expression while reinforcing shape recognition and fine motor development.
To use, simply lay a sheet of paper over a plate and rub with crayons or pastels to reveal a clearly defined shape with an interesting interior pattern. Younger students can explore simple shape identification, while older children can use the plates repeatedly to develop more intricate layered designs. Each plate features tactile perimeter tracing paths, making them especially beneficial for visually impaired learners to feel and identify shapes through touch. A teacher guide is included to support creative integration into lessons across the curriculum.
