This fascinating board requires the children to move small coloured magnetic beads from a holding pen into large numbered spaces. Each number has a different colour (1 is red, 2 is yellow and so forth) and these match the colour of the beads. To move a bead the child needs to collect it using a magnetic pick-up tool and then carry it to the correct location before dropping it off. An excellent first number, colour and coordination exercise and the magnetic tool has to be gripped like a pencil which is excellent for fine motor and early writing practice.
