Pinwheel Farm Animal Ten-Frame Magnetic Math & Counting Set

Help your child build a rock-solid foundation in mathematics with the Pinwheel Farm Animal Counting Ten-Frame. Designed specifically for early learners, this magnetic educational set bridges the gap between simple counting and complex arithmetic through engaging, hands-on play. By transforming abstract numbers into friendly farm animals and tactile parcels, it fosters a natural "number sense" that prepares children for school-level math.

Key Benefits

Structured Phased Learning:** This set follows a scientific three-step progression. It begins with basic 1–20 counting and quantity correspondence, moves into "Ten-Frame" logic (making and borrowing ten), and concludes with advanced addition and subtraction.

Visual Mathematical Logic:** By using concrete animal counters and a ten-frame grid, children can physically "see" how numbers decompose and combine. This visual approach makes the transition from physical objects to abstract mental math seamless and stress-free.

Magnetic Convenience & Portability:** The sturdy storage box doubles as a magnetic playboard. Pieces snap into place easily and stay put, preventing them from sliding off during travel or play, while also making cleanup a breeze.

Ergonomic "Golden Angle" Design:** The set is engineered to stand at an optimal angle, allowing children to solve problems while sitting upright. This promotes better posture and eye health by preventing the "low-head" hunching often seen with traditional workbooks.

Immersive Role-Play:** Beyond standard drills, the "Little Mailman" game mode allows kids to role-play delivering parcels. This narrative element turns math practice into an exciting adventure, keeping young minds engaged for longer periods.

Key Specs

Recommended Age:** 3 years and up.

Materials:** High-quality magnetic sheets, durable reinforced cardstock, and tactile velcro components.

Included Components:** 30 Double-sided progressive challenge cards (ranging from easy to difficult), a variety of magnetic farm animal counters, parcel-themed math tokens, and a multifunctional magnetic storage box.

Educational Focus:** Number recognition, quantity correspondence, ten-frame visualization, and 1–20 arithmetic.

How to Use

1. **Set Up:** Open the magnetic box and prop it up using the built-in stand to achieve the ergonomic viewing angle.

2. **Select a Level:** Choose one of the 30 challenge cards. Start with Step 1 (Counting) for younger children and progress toward Step 3 (Addition/Subtraction) as their confidence grows.

3. **Interact:** Place the card on the board and use the magnetic animal counters to fill the ten-frame. For the "Little Mailman" game, use the velcro parcels to simulate "delivering" or "removing" items to solve subtraction problems.

4. **Verify:** Encourage the child to count the remaining pieces aloud to verify their answer against the card’s logic.

Care & Safety

Storage:** Always store magnetic pieces inside the provided box when not in use to maintain their magnetic strength and prevent loss.

Cleaning:** Wipe surfaces with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not submerge the cards or board in water, as this may damage the cardstock.

Safety Warning:** This product contains small magnets and parts. Adult supervision is required at all times to prevent choking hazards. Keep away from high temperatures and electronic devices sensitive to magnets.

Notes

This comprehensive set is specifically designed to help children move "数学从具象到抽象" (math from concrete to abstract).
