By using physical blocks to represent addition and subtraction, children can "see" the math happening in front of them, building a strong foundation for future problem-solving.

Why "I Can Make Ten!" is a Learning Essential:

• Develops Early Numeracy: This set is the perfect introduction to the fundamentals of addition, subtraction, and basic counting, preparing children for school-level mathematics.
• Sustainably Sourced Wood: Crafted from high-quality, FSC-certified wood with a smooth finish, ensuring a durable and eco-friendly learning resource.
• Boosts Problem-Solving: Encourages toddlers to experiment with different pairings—how many ways can they find to fill the board and reach ten?

What’s Included in the Box:

• 1 x Sturdy Wooden Baseboard (with dot marker guides)
• 31 x Double-Sided Wooden Blocks (featuring numbers and words)

Play & Learning Tips:

• Start with Counting: Before moving to addition, have your child count the dots on the baseboard and match them to the corresponding number block.
• The "Find the Partner" Game: Place a '3' block on the board and ask your child to find which block is needed to reach ten. This turns "number bonds" into an engaging puzzle.
• Cleaning: Gently wipe the wooden board and blocks with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using excess water to prevent the wood from warping or the print from fading.
• Storage: Keep the blocks in their original packaging or a dedicated tray to ensure all 31 pieces stay together for complete math sessions.
