Naturally, instructions are included in the high-quality beech wood box. This Goki - Calculating sticks block set provides an excellent way to introduce young children to the Cuisenaire maths concepts of counting, fractions and logical thinking. Use the wooden calculating sticks in the much-loved traditional way for stacking and building to improve fine motor skills and coordination or as a simple learning tool to develop the ability to instantly recognise a number without obvious numerals or dots.
