C1900 J.L. Hammett's Kindergarten Dexterity ActivityBox
This circa 1910, wooden box with slide lid retains its original paper label: "Hammett's Kindergarten Material, Fifth Gift" made by the J.L. Hammett Company of Brooklyn, New York and Cambridge, Massachusetts.

The wooden box, now empty, was once filled with many 1 inch square wooden cubes, the purpose of which was to provide development of fine motor control in kindergartners through their play and manipulation. This box represents one of a series of "gifts" produced by J.L. Hammett designed for use in schools for the above stated purpose.

The box is in very good condition with subtle evidence of use and measures 4 inches in length, width and height.

Displays quite nicely!
