Reversible Wooden Five & Ten Frames - Set of 4

Transform your early years maths curriculum into something truly special with our Reversible Wooden Five & Ten Frames. These beauties aren’t just any wooden frames; they’re the multi-taskers of early years maths resources! From developing basic mathematical skills to enhancing reasoning and problem-solving, these frames are a must-have for every EYFS setting. Perfectly sized for group or individual activities, they bring maths skills to life through hands-on exploration and play.

Use the frames to dive into number bonds up to 10 or flip them over for number track work—because even maths tools deserve to show off their versatile side. Pair them with or to introduce early years maths games that captivate and challenge.  They are great for 1:1 correspondence work and understanding 5 and number bonds up to 10. Why stop there? Grab  from your outdoor learning baskets (pinecones, stones or even leaves) to explore counting and pattern-making. They’re not just frames—they’re a gateway to discovering core numerical skills while having a blast.

Planning to enhance literacy and numeracy in your setting? These frames fit snugly into both structured lessons and independent exploration areas. From EYFS numeracy games to early years foundation stage maths curriculum activities, they provide endless opportunities for deep learning and fun. Oh, and a pro tip: the linseed oil finish gives them a gorgeous natural look, so they won’t feel out of place even in your rustic outdoor learning space. Just remember to give them a quick oil treatment every six months if they’re working overtime outdoors!

Whether you’re supporting counting, exploring patterns or boosting numerical skills, these versatile frames are ready to tackle it all. Plus, at 40 cm long, they’re robust enough for those more “enthusiastic” learners while remaining easy to handle. It’s maths—but with style and durability to spare.
