Description

Counting Peas in Pods is a tactile numeracy resource that invites children to explore early maths concepts through hands-on play. This charming set features nine different sized pea pods, each with raised peas representing quantities from 1–9. Children can feel the peas, count them, sort the pods by size, and stack or arrange them in different ways while building foundational maths skills.

Made from 100% pure wool and coloured with natural biodegradable dyes, this beautiful felt set is ideal for early learning environments, food play or small world activities.
