Our notes

Our wooden shape boards are the perfect hands-on, tactile resource for your little ones. Your child can begin to recognize some basic 2D shapes by carefully tracing them with their finger or using the tracing stick. We have designed our boards to be reversible so you have the most recognizable 2D shapes children in the early years should know and then on the reverse are other 2D shapes. The shapes on the front are a circle, triangle, square, and rectangle. On the reverse is an oval, pentagon, hexagon, and heptagon.

Our resources are based on the Montessori self-directed, hands-on approach to learning. Using our shape boards children will be able to feel each shape and its properties and start to use the language to describe them e.g. a square has 4 straight sides.

About the brand

Hello and welcome to The Little Coach House!

We are a family-run business made up of myself, Jenny, my husband Andy, and our three children Callum, Finn, and Jude. We are based in Lymington, New Forest one of the most beautiful places to live - well we think so anyway.

The Little Coach House was born 3 years ago when we made the big decision to relocate from our busy lives in London to the idyllic countryside. The business started when my husband decided to ditch the commute to London every day and focus on the things he enjoyed most - working with wood and being with us. I was working as a part-time primary school teacher and after having our second child decided to stay home and help with our growing business.

Since then we have created a successful line of children's learning resources which we now supply to stores worldwide as well as schools, nurseries, and childminders. Our products are designed based on my background knowledge of primary teaching and interest in the Montessori way of learning. Our three boys aged 2, 3, and 7 years old are our chief product testers!

We are extremely passionate about our products and our ethos is to create quality, purposeful products that will last a lifetime.
