Thames & Kosmos Kids First Math: Number Balance

Math concepts come to life with Kids First Math: Number Balance. Take a hands-on approach to learning addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, greater than, less than, and even pre-algebra! Kids gain an intuitive grasp of numbers and equations as they place weights on the two sides of the balance and learn what values equal each other: 2 + 5 = 7; 3 x 3 = 8 +1; 6 > 3 + 2. The possibilities are endless! The two sides of the scale are decorated with a squirrel and a bird, helping kids differentiate the two sides of an equation. The colorful stickers on the balance show different representations of numbers, which support even the youngest of children to learn their numbers.
