Flower Stones and Bowls

Beautiful, blooming, and brilliantly educational! The Flower Stones and Bowls set combines nature-inspired design with meaningful mathematical play, making it a wonderfully versatile resource for early childhood settings. The set includes four flower bowls in blue, green, red, and yellow, alongside 16 matching flower stones in four designs — each flower colour featuring three, four, five, or six petals to support early counting and subitising skills. The bowls float in water and are suitable for sand play. They can be filled with flower stones or any other treasures children discover along the way. Ideal for threading activities, the flower stones can be laced onto twine or sticks to develop fine motor skills and explore repeating patterns. From mud kitchens to small world play, where the bowls become boats or fairy homes, these beautiful resources inspire open-ended, imaginative exploration at every turn.

Educational Benefits:

• Supports early counting and subitising skills through the varied petal designs (3, 4, 5, and 6 petals per flower)
• Develops colour recognition, sorting, and matching through the colour-coded bowls and corresponding flower stones
• Builds fine motor skills and introduces pattern-making through threading flowers onto twine or sticks
• Inspires imaginative and creative thinking through open-ended small world and sensory play scenarios

Classroom & Play Activity Ideas:

• Use the petal flowers as a hands-on counting and subitising provocation, matching each flower stone to its numerical value
• Sort and match flower stones into their corresponding colour bowls for a colour recognition and classification activity
• Thread flower stones onto twine or sticks to create and extend repeating colour and shape patterns
• Use the floating bowls and stones in sand and water play, or small world setups as fairy homes, boats, or mud kitchen props
