Number Buddies Math Game for Kids 4-8 years old

Product Description Experience the "Land of Number Buddies" with this engaging and versatile Montessori number rods math learning toy set. This fun, tactile, and educational game deepens kids' understanding of addition & subtraction facts. Utilizing two sets of number rods, an addition / subtraction grid board, and 50 quests, children can explore and solve various math problems within the context of the "Land of Number Buddies." In this imaginary land, numbers come to life, residing in houses and forming friendships. By immersing themselves in this environment, children learn core math concepts such as addition, subtraction, regrouping, and parts & wholes.

Educational Influences The educational math board game is influenced by various learning tools for early elementary school, including ideas from Singapore math, numberblocks toys, Cuisenaire rods, math cubes, and Montessori math toys. The incorporation of Montessori numerical math rods, addition strip boards, and bead houses provides children with hands-on, visual, and tactile opportunities to explore and understand math concepts.

Fun & Effective Learning Incorporate gamified learning through this number set, which allows children to see and understand the different ways numbers can be broken apart and joined together. The concepts of "Number Houses" and "Number Buddies" provide a new and exciting perspective on digit & written number correspondence. In addition to mastering number family facts, the set aids in teaching number bonds for math fact families up to 20, subitizing, and odd & even number differentiation.

Multi-Functional Number Rods Utilize the multi-functional number rods to improve number bonds, digit & name matching, and understanding of odd versus even numbers. Pairing a number's name with its digit is made simple through matching font colors and colored rods that align with the Montessori material color scheme. The construction of the rods enables children to visualize the relationship between value and length, thus providing a useful tool for arithmetic exploration.
