- Links to the fingers as well as other familiar dot patterns
- Highlights the links between numbers
- Displays numbers in a highly visual format
- Encourages children to subitise & not rely on enumerating, but on number facts
- Gives children the opportunity to explore the fascinating patterns in numbers
- Enables children to physically partition & manipulate numbers
- Allows children to discover and make sense of number through play.
