Description
The 1 to 10 Counting Cans from Learning Resources are a fantastic tool for introducing early math concepts to children. These colourful cans filled with familiar fruits and veggies make learning to count, recognising numbers, and sorting both fun and engaging. Perfect for both educational and imaginative play, these counting cans are designed to provide a hands-on learning experience that supports early childhood development.
Engage with Early Math Concepts
The 1 to 10 Counting Cans are designed to teach children essential early math skills, including counting, number recognition, and sorting. Each can is labelled with numerals, words, and pictures, providing multiple forms of guidance and reinforcement. This multi-sensory approach helps children understand and remember the concepts more effectively.
Realistic Fruits and Vegetables
The set includes 55 realistically detailed plastic fruits and vegetables, which children can sort into the corresponding cans. This realistic detail not only makes the play more engaging but also helps children learn to identify various fruits and vegetables, expanding their vocabulary and knowledge of healthy foods.
Educational Benefits
- Counting and Number Sense: Children learn to count from 1 to 10 and develop a strong sense of numbers as they match the fruits and vegetables to the correct cans.
- Number Recognition: The cans are clearly labelled with numerals, words, and pictures, helping children to recognise and understand numbers in different forms.
- Sorting Skills: Sorting the fruits and vegetables into the corresponding cans enhances cognitive skills and logical thinking.
Reinforce Everyday Vocabulary and Fine Motor Skills
Using the 1 to 10 Counting Cans, children can expand their vocabulary by learning the names of various fruits and vegetables. This also promotes smart snack choices as they become more familiar with healthy foods. Additionally, handling the fruits and vegetables helps develop fine motor skills, as children use both whole-hand grasps and more mature pincer grasps to explore the shapes and textures.
Compact and Easy to Store
Each can measures 80 × 100mm (4.25”H x 3”D) and they stack easily for convenient storage. This compact design makes it simple to keep the set organised and ready for the next learning session.
