Five Math Friends
With Grimms Five Math Friends, children can playfully discover the abstract world of numbers. If acorns or flowers are collected from nature and put together differently, then new arithmetic problems arise effortlessly. In this way, arithmetic can be experienced with different senses when the hands can grasp what the eyes can see. Every maths friend is decorated with a maths symbol: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The fifth maths friend is decorated with the equal sign and looks forward to answers made understandable through play.
Each of the little hand-painted wooden figures has a different look and individual wood grain. These happy little wooden figures, made from different types of wood from trees indigenous to central Europe, are gender-neutral. With no specific facial expression, they can be either sad or happy.
