Details
These Learning Resources counters do two jobs at once. As maths manipulatives they work exactly as plain counters do, supporting counting, sorting and patterning for children from three years, in 24 pieces across four colours. What sets them apart is that each counter is a character: Mom, Dad, Brother, Sister, Baby and Pet, the people and animals children actually find in a family. That turns an abstract counting exercise into something about their own household, which is a far more engaging way in for a three-year-old, and it opens up the social side of early learning alongside the numbers. A downloadable activity guide provides lessons built around All About Me, covering personal identity development as well as early numeracy. The set measures 12 x 13 x 3.2 cm. It is a natural choice for anyone teaching counting who would rather the material meant something to the child holding it.
