Bright, tactile and beautifully hands on, the Grimm’s Counting with Colors set turns early mathematics into something children can see, touch, arrange and discover for themselves. Part of the Grimm’s Learning & Educational Toys
The set contains two hundred small wooden number tiles in fifteen different colours, opening up an extraordinary range of possibilities for playful mathematical exploration. Children can create colourful number snakes, practise addition and subtraction, build multiplication tables, investigate number patterns and begin to explore ideas such as prime numbers and digit sums.
Rather than presenting mathematics as something abstract on a page, Counting with Colors allows children to physically move numbers, group them, compare them and see relationships emerge in front of them. This sensory approach can make mathematical ideas feel much more natural and accessible, particularly for children who learn best through doing.
The colours are not simply decorative. Grimm’s uses a consistent colour language across its World of Numbers collection, helping children make visual connections between numbers, quantities and mathematical relationships.
The wooden frame keeps the pieces beautifully organised, while the included play ideas offer plenty of inspiration for families, home educators and classrooms. It can be used for simple early number play and gradually introduced in more sophisticated ways as a child’s confidence grows.
A wonderfully thoughtful learning material that makes numbers feel playful, colourful and inviting.
