Montessori Number Rods (40pc)
Bring back a hands-on math’s classic. Our Montessori Number Rods help children see and feel number size, counting, and early addition/subtraction through open-ended play.
Handmade from beautiful mango wood and finished with non-toxic colours, each piece has its own natural grain and tiny hand painted variations, part of what makes this set feel truly special (and a little different from mass-produced plastic).
Perfect for counting, number order, comparing length, simple sums, patterning, and early number sense.
What's Included
What's Included:
- 40 wooden number rods (4 of each length from 1–10)
- Cotton drawstring pouch (storage + travel friendly)
Material: Made from mango wood with a smooth finish and finished with non-toxic paint.
Note: This is a natural wood product and there may be colour variations (please be aware of this as returns are not accepted for colour variations in the wood material). We are an environmentally conscious company and use all parts of a tree to make these handcrafted.
Safety & Usage
Recommended age: 3+ years (36 months+)
Warning: Choking hazard; small parts. Not suitable for children under 36 months. Use under adult supervision.
How to use:
- Start simple: match and line up rods from shortest (1) to longest (10).
- Count the numbers together using the rods as a visual guide.
- Try “make 10” games (e.g., 6 + 4, 7 + 3) by placing rods end-to-end.
- Use for patterns and colour sorting (repeat sequences, build simple “rules”).
Care: Wipe with a slightly damp cloth; dry immediately. Do not soak or place in dishwasher. Store dry in the pouch; avoid prolonged direct sunlight and damp environments. Discontinue use if any piece becomes damaged or loose.
