elja® Number Cushion 0 - 9 (colors), weight ascending, cover and inner cushion

Number cushions – heavy, quartz sand -filled cushions for placing, grasping, kneading, feeling, pulling, pushing, and organizing. For educational use.
 Stimulate the senses and support perception.
 The number cushions consist of a cover and an inner cushion . A number is applied to the front of the cover, and the back is blank. This means the number cushions can also be used as color cushions .
 The number cushions are weighted in ascending order so that you can also feel the number through your body . Learning through physical experience . This way, you quickly understand that 5 is larger, i.e. heavier, than 2.
 The inner cushion is removable , allowing for even more versatile uses of the number cushions. Color and quantity assignments are also possible, meaning you can put all the blue items in the blue cushion, for example, or three wooden cubes in the cushion with the number 3.
 It's also very interesting to match the neutral-colored inner cushions to the number cushion based on their different weights . This is quite easy between 9 and 1. Between two numbers that are next to each other, it's much more difficult. A scale with a scale pointer can be helpful; then you can "see" which inner cushion is heavier.
 The color combination of a pillow always remains within the same color , i.e., a green pillow and a green number. This ensures that the pillow always remains a "green" one. This is particularly helpful for children who need very clear and unambiguous information, such as autistic children.
 Learning through movement is perfectly implemented with the number cushions. Here are a few examples :
 Order numbers
 Place numbers (on the back of your practice partner or simply on the floor)
 By lifting, feel which number is higher – i.e. heavier – (you could also do this with your eyes closed)
 Practice multiplication series by throwing or by “jumping”
 balance or hop from one number to another
 and much more.
 There are no limits to your imagination.
 The weighted pillows are all lovingly hand-sewn with selected materials in Lower Austria.
 By purchasing a number set you support the elja ® Special Needs pot.
