When your early maths area deserves better than clunky plastic tubs, these woven palm leaf bowls step in with quiet confidence and rustic charm.
Ideal for settings with a natural aesthetic (or just those sick of everything looking like Tupperware), this set of 10 bowls brings hands-on number work back to nature.
Perfect for sorting, counting, and patterning, they're just the right size for small hands and a generous helping of acorns, buttons, cubes or beads.
Use them in your sand tray, water area, or alongside your loose parts collection to encourage mathematical talk and reasoning in continuous provision.
Lightweight yet surprisingly durable, these bowls are a brilliant addition to any EYFS or KS1 learning environment.
Plus, they stack neatly-because let's face it, nobody needs more unstackable chaos in their maths shelf.
A good-looking, good-value alternative that ticks all the right boxes for spatial reasoning, number sense and that all-important EYFS aesthetic.
