Pick up sticks and start counting! This beautifully simple wooden log has equal-sized holes which will encourage children to count out the correct number of sticks from a pile, and then count in the correct number for each section. When placed correctly in the sections, children can easily see the difference between the numbers (cardinality). Each side of the log shows a slightly different range of numerals – 1-10 on one side and 0-9 on the other, making it helpful to teach ordinality and the value of zero. Made from FSC beech wood the Counting Log is a delight to touch and play with. Contains: Counting Log measuring 18-1/2" long and 60 sticks (2-1/2"). Safe for children aged 18+ months. Recommended age 18-72 months
