Counting sticks are a handy tool in early mathematics that can be used for counting, sorting, sequencing, measurement, basic calculations, and more. For example, 3x5 = 3 groups with 5 sticks each = 15 sticks in total. You can combine counting sticks with number tiles (A2007A05) to help children move from concrete (physical items like sticks) to abstract (written symbols). For example, place the number tiles 4+5=9 on a tray. Then place 4, 5 and 9 sticks under the corresponding number tiles. Children can also use the counting sticks to play games like Pick-Up Sticks.</o:p>

Using counting sticks develops creative and logical thinking, problem-solving skills, colour recognition, basic math skills, concentration, hand-eye coordination, and fine motor skills.</o:p>
