Wooden Sensory Rekenrek - Count to 20

Item No: 21-93432
The tactile sense
Logical thinking
Numeracy skills

A rekenrek is a fantastic tool for helping children make sense of numbers. By moving the beads, children can practise counting, compare quantities, and experiment with adding and taking away. Think of it as a wonderfully hands-on calculator for young learners.  

The red and white beads make numbers easier to visualise, while the different textures add an extra sensory element to learning. 

The rekenrek measures 25 x 7.5 x 7.5 cm and is made of wood.

Here are a couple of simple ways to get started:

- Move a number of beads to one side and ask your child to slide the same number of beads on the row below to the opposite side.

- Place a number of beads on one side. Ask your child to count them, then count how many beads are left on the opposite side.

- Have your child count from 1 to 20 while moving the beads one by one. Too easy? Try counting backwards from 20 instead.

- Practise simple addition and subtraction using the beads. For example, show 5 + 2 on the top row, then use the bottom row to display the answer.

Suitable for children aged 3 yrs. to 11 yrs.

Science is not necessarily something dull and difficult that adults tinker with in distant laboratories or offices. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) play activities and experiments are proof of that. The conventional boundaries between natural science, technology, engineering, and mathematics are erased, and your child learns through playing and experimenting.

Supports essential skills that are great for your child's well-being and ability to learn:

  • Wonderful for your child's tactile sense. A properly stimulated tactile sense strengthens your child's well-being.
  • Helps your child strengthen their logical thinking.
  • Helps your child learn about quantities, numbers, and other basic math.
