About Schitalochka
Description. With the entertaining game "Counting" your child will learn to solve simple examples of addition and subtraction within five, and at the same time (which is especially important for kids) have fun. The set includes paired example and answer cards: "1+1" and "2", "5-2" and "3". All cards are equipped with puzzle locks, so the child will not be able to make a mistake in solving and combine unsuitable parts.
