Educational Influences
Influenced by a variety of learning tools for early elementary school, our educational maths board game takes the best ideas from Singapore maths, numberblocks toys, Cuisenaire rods, maths cubes, and Montessori maths toys. This includes Montessori numerical maths rods, addition strip board, and bead houses.
All these theories combined all point to the main idea that children learn best when provided opportunities for hands-on, visual, & tactile exploration of various maths manipulatives.

These maths manipulatives provide endless opportunities to explore and investigate fundamental maths concepts:
- Addition & subtraction

LINED RODS FOR MENTAL MATHS PRACTICE
Number rods are double-sided for mental maths practice & encourages subitizing (the ability to see a number's value without counting).
- Matching # of squares for each rod
- 5th bar line is bolded for rods 6-10
Double-sided number rods allow for self-exploration and provide visual reinforcement.
Number cubes 0-20 and + - = signs make for great maths counters to practice equation building, skip counting, & ordering.
