🐝 Teaching Tip from a Montessori Guide

The bee graphics aren't just decoration—they're your child's bridge from concrete to abstract thinking. First, they count every bee. Then they start recognizing small groups without counting ("oh, that's four bees"). Eventually they solve 3+5 without looking at the pictures at all. This is exactly how mathematical understanding develops.

🎓 Why Parents Love This Product

This was my very first Montessori Marbles product, and I've refined it based on years of feedback from homeschool families and teachers. It's simple, engaging, reusable, and actually teaches addition the way young brains learn best—with hands-on counting before jumping to memorization.
