Sandpaper Letters Kannada

The Sandpaper Letters Kannada set is a Montessori material designed to introduce children to the Kannada alphabet through a tactile and sensorial approach.

Each letter is crafted in sandpaper, allowing children to trace the shape with their fingers while associating it with its sound. Consonants are mounted on pink boards, while vowels are placed on blue boards, making it easy for children to visually differentiate between the two.

This multisensory method strengthens the connection between symbol, sound, and movement, preparing children for reading and writing in Kannada. By engaging touch, sight, and sound, this activity creates a strong foundation for literacy development.
