Five Frame Boats - Set of 5

Ahoy mateys, it’s time to learn about maths with our Five Frame Boats! This set of five boats provides a tactile and visual way for children to engage in early maths concepts, such as counting, addition, subtraction, or simple grouping tasks. Outside of lessons, it can be easily incorporated into small-world setups and role-play scenarios. 

Each boat is crafted from rustic wood, making them a charming, natural addition to your classroom which encourages exploration and open-ended play. Children can get creative by filling the frames with small objects like pebbles, conkers, or miniature figures to represent quantities, helping children connect ideas. 

Compact and sturdy, they are built to withstand regular use in busy classrooms and can be easily integrated into maths lessons, group work, or independent play. Whether on their own or alongside our Ten Frame Boats, they’re a valuable tool for teaching early numeracy skills in EYFS up to KS1 settings. Why not pair with our Plain Peg People - Pack of 30?
