Early Years Maths Resource or Light Box Set - 504pcs

This extensive set of translucent acrylic materials supports mathematical exploration, creative design and sensory play, particularly when used on a light panel. Children can investigate shape, colour, pattern and number concepts through hands-on experiences, building understanding as they sort, count, sequence and create.

The variety of shapes and sizes encourages open-ended exploration, from threading and pattern-making to constructing and comparing attributes. The translucent pieces enhance visual engagement, allowing children to explore colour mixing and light effects while developing fine motor skills. 

Includes a storage container and activity guide for easy organisation and setup.

• 72 translucent lacing shapes in 6 colours (approx. 52mm), including flowers, hexagons, triangles, circles, hearts, rhombi, octagons, squares, 9-point stars, pentagons, rectangles and 5-point stars

EYLF Learning Outcome Connections

Outcome 4.2: Children develop a range of skills and processes such as problem solving, inquiry and experimentation as they sort, sequence and construct.

Outcome 5.4: Children begin to understand how symbols and pattern systems work as they explore shape, number, pattern and spatial relationships.
