The set includes 10 bamboo cups and 55 sticks, allowing students to practice counting, sorting, and organising objects based on different attributes such as size, colour, material, and shape. Children can place the correct number of sticks in each cup, or they can explore by finding and collecting objects from nature or around the classroom. This versatile set promotes creativity and problem-solving while reinforcing basic counting skills. Educational Benefits: Supports the development of number recognition and counting skills. Enhances sorting abilities by colour, size, material, and shape. Promotes fine motor skills through hands-on manipulation of sticks and cups.

Classroom Ideas: Use the cups and sticks to practise one-to-one correspondence by matching the correct number of sticks to each cup. Sort natural objects into the cups by various attributes, such as size or colour. Organise a sorting challenge where children race to sort sticks into cups based on different criteria. Incorporate this set into counting games or as part of a maths lesson on numbers and quantities.
