Number Felt Board – Build Early Maths Skills Through Play

Make numbers visible, hands-on, and easy to understand.

This interactive felt board set helps children explore numbers in a concrete way — using counters and number pieces to build, count, and represent quantities. It’s a simple but powerful tool for developing early maths skills without relying on worksheets or screens.

Perfect for younger learners, this resource supports counting, number recognition, and early addition through play-based learning.

Why it works:

• Helps children see and represent numbers clearly
• Builds strong counting and one-to-one correspondence skills
• Supports early addition and number combinations
• Encourages hands-on, interactive learning
• Develops focus and fine motor skills

Perfect for:

• Prep and early primary students
• Children learning to count and recognise numbers
• Reinforcing maths concepts taught at school

How it supports learning:

Children place counters onto the felt board to match each number, helping them understand that numbers represent real quantities — not just symbols. This builds the foundation for addition, subtraction, and number confidence.

The Boxxi Approach 💜

Like all resources we recommend, this set focuses on real understanding, not memorisation — helping children build confidence in maths through hands-on learning that actually makes sense.
