The Counting Express

All aboard the learning express! This beautifully crafted Wooden Montessori Number Train introduces toddlers to early maths, fine motor skills, and imaginative play—all in one charming, minimalist design.

With pastel-coloured wooden numbers, removable cargo pieces, and smooth, child-safe construction, this train helps little learners explore counting, sequencing, stacking, and creative storytelling through hands-on play.

⭐ Developmental & Educational Benefits

🧮 Early Maths Skills

Toddlers learn to recognise numbers, understand quantity, explore sequencing (1–5), and begin early counting through playful repetition.

🤲 Fine Motor Skill Development

Placing numbers onto pegs, loading and unloading the cargo, and connecting the train pieces strengthens:

• grip

• finger control

• hand-eye coordination

• bilateral coordination
  

🧠 Cognitive Growth

This toy encourages problem-solving, matching, spatial reasoning, and early STEM thinking as children figure out where pieces belong and how the train connects.

🎨 Colour & Shape Recognition

Soft, neutral tones make the set soothing while still helping toddlers distinguish shapes and colours in a gentle, Montessori-aligned way.

✨ Imaginative Play

Once the numbers are loaded, the train becomes a world of pretend play—encouraging storytelling, role-play, and expressive language development.

🌿 Montessori-Inspired

Made from smooth natural wood with a minimalist aesthetic, this toy supports open-ended, child-led exploration.
