Create a buzz both inside and outdoors with these adorable honey bee stones! This set of busy bees will help children to develop an understanding of numbers and apply this knowledge in different contexts. They can be used for a range of learning opportunities, including recognising the numerals shown on the bees’ backs and relating these to groups of objects, reinforcing the idea of numbers. Explore number sequences and odd and even numbers, along with addition, subtraction and number bonds to 10. Children can also have fun using these bees alongside our Ladybug Counting Stones. Set includes two each of 1-10 honey bee stones that will not fade over time. Size 50mm. Age 2+.
Designed to be used with our Honey Bee Number Stones, our engaging activity cards provide an exciting way to help children develop early number skills. The vibrant photographic backgrounds invite children’s involvement, with the discussion generated covering numerals from 1–10, the concept of numbers and how numbers can be represented. The cards can also be used to explore number sequences, odd and even numbers, addition, subtraction and number bonds to 10. Made from durable plastic, suitable for use outside, each set includes 16 colourful cards measuring 275 x 210mm. Safe for All Ages.

“The children liked the size and texture of the bees. It’s great that the boards are wipe-clean and durable. We liked the fact they could be used in different ways.”

“We used the bees for counting, sorting and ordering, but the children also used them freely and enthusiastically in their open-ended imaginative play.”
