Montessori bead chains:
This activity teaches the child skip counting which is preparation for multiplication. It also indirectly prepares the child to understand squaring numbers.

At its simplest, this activity is good for practicing number order. That after 29 comes 30, and after 39 comes 40, etc.

On the next level, it illustrates skip counting; counting by twos or threes or fives.

An older child will see the multiplication tables from these chains.

Example:
when we do skip counting of five
we take out the chain 5
Count each section
5, 10,15,20,25....., 50

He can also record the number for skip counting of 5.

When a child counts short bead chain 5, it reinforces the pattern of 5 in his mind.
It comes naturally for a child when you introduce the multiplication.
It also provides the visual experience for the group of 5.

I'm so glad I finally found Venus' shop and purchased these. We attached the bar to our art easel and kiddos have had fun sorting them (ages 4 and 6). We're homeschooling and these are so great for us to work with as we play and learn. I asked for lobster clasps so we could take apart the bars. I also got the place value set which I really recommend. https://www.etsy.com/listing/723615804/montessori-math-place-value-bundle?ref=yr_purchases

My oldest was able to visualize the 100s and 1000s so much better and explain it to his sister. Again, we're mostly playing with them at this point, but I laminated Venus' worksheets she shared as well.

Awesome product, quality, and customer service!
