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 sustainably sourced beech wood the Counting Log measures 465mm includes 55 sticks (60mm) and is a delight to touch and play with. Safe for children aged 18mths+.
