Pedagogical Info

Before they can do addition and subtraction, children need to understand that they can increase the number of items in a group by adding items and reduce the number in the group by removing items. Luckily, they can practice doing this with actual objects.

This game allows children to practice a number of skills, including number recognition, counting out a number of objects, and number comparison.

Your child might struggle at first, but as they add or remove items, they’re beginning to learn the concepts behind addition and subtraction.
