Trace & Write Number Stones

Help young learners develop confident number formation with the Trace & Write Number Stones set, featuring ten tactile stones engraved with numbers 0 to 9. Measuring between 95-105mm, each stone has a natural, stone-like appearance that complements any classroom or childcare environment. Guided by a green starting dot and subtle arrows, children trace the number shapes with their fingers to build fine motor skills and motor memory while learning correct numeral formation. This hands-on approach also develops the language needed to describe shapes and patterns in numbers. Crafted from a durable stone mix, these weatherproof stones are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, making them a versatile and engaging resource for early years settings from age 2 and up.
