Giant Connecting Number Beads - 1-20

The Giant Connecting Number Beads set consists of 20 oversized, durable plastic beads numbered from 1 to 20, designed to promote hands-on maths learning both indoors and outdoors. These sturdy beads, measuring 20 cm square each, are easy to connect and disconnect, featuring a robust design to prevent breakage during play. Blank on one side, the beads enable children to engage in number sequencing activities such as spotting missing numbers, counting forwards and backwards, and identifying ˜one more' or ˜one less' within the sequence. Available in four bright colours-blue, yellow, green, and red-this set encourages cooperative play, social interaction, and active learning. Recommended for children aged 2 years and older, the Giant Connecting Number Beads offer an engaging, large-scale way to explore fundamental numeracy concepts through physical activity.
