Solving mathematical tasks with the help of Lego bricks offers children a highly motivating and efficient way of learning the basics of number and set theory. The concept put forth by this volume helps parents, educators and grade-school teachers to lay the foundation of mathematical knowledge in children aged 3 to 10 years old, and to accompany their development throughout this time. The reader learns what is important and how those aspects can best be communicated.
The programme can be used to institute a training period of several weeks or as the basis for furthering a child’s logical and mathematical skills over a longer period of time. Being based on a series of developmental steps, the book is also suitable for children with dyscalculia, for use in the first two years of grade school as well as for both children with special needs and for gifted preschool children.
