Number Set for Sensory Play
About this product
Our Number Set is perfect for counting games, number tracing and simple sums, introducing toddlers and preschoolers to numeracy in a fun and engaging way.
Made from high-quality, non-toxic, water-resistant silicone, these numbers are designed to withstand busy play and won’t become damaged or mouldy like traditional foam or plastic alternatives. They’re perfect for sensory play, messy play and bath time learning, and come in a handy washable bag for easy storage and organisation.
Each number features a recessed profile that invites children to press, stamp and imprint the shapes into sensory materials like sand or playdough, reinforcing number recognition through tactile exploration. The raised edges also make it easy to fill the numbers with materials such as rice, water or playdough, encouraging creativity and fine motor development. Children can trace the number shapes with their fingers too, helping them become familiar with number formation and supporting early maths skills.
The set comes in six pastel tones, making it easy for children to group, compare and explore mathematical relationships. It’s a lovely resource for parents, educators and therapists looking to nurture numeracy through play.
Our Number Set pairs perfectly with our award-winning PlayTRAY and Letter Sets to create engaging, contained setups for teaching numeracy, phonics and spelling in new and exciting ways. For more inspiration, check out our Teaching Maths Through Play blog, featuring 7 simple activities to help young children build those all-important early maths skills before starting school.

Number Set for Sensory Play
As a registered childminder I saw this and hoped it would be useful. I hoped I could link many of the activities into the EYFS and the 7 areas of learning.
I’m really blown away with it. The tray is really sturdy. The various ways in using it, the lid and then the inserts. The extras. Amazing ideas from both packs of the activities has given more many many months of learning ideas and am able to expand on most of them and make it suitable for all the ages I care for. Even the 10 year olds were busy after school exploring it.
I’m very happy I bought it. I showed it on childminder network group and a lot of them were very interested in buying it.
The numbers came quickly and beautifully packaged with a useful zip bag for storage. They are the perfect size and shape for little hands and were immediately popular.
My grandson is engaged and developing his own ideas about how he wants to use the materials.
I’ve shown the play tray resources to two friends and both are planning to buy them. There’s so much scope for learning through play.
Own most of the items now and this is yet another lovely set. Perfect for pre schoolders.

These are FANTASTIC! Perfect size. Sturdy. Totally beautiful. Used constantly for all the things by my 4.5 year old. Suddenly he wants to create equations constantly. All I was hoping for was number recognition. Now I need an additional set as he explores bigger numbers!
