The award winning Number Train classes are designed for pre-school children & offer a different ‘f https://number-train.class4kids.co.uk

Number Train is a FUN and interactive introduction to maths for preschool children designed and delivered by a primary maths specialist with over 15 years experience. Each week, the children board the imaginary train and go on a different journey exploring many areas of the Early Years curriculum through singing, dancing, games and craft. All activities are designed to keep the little ones engaged

and have an underlying focus on maths (number, counting, pattern, shape, colour, time, money, position etc) so they start school feeling confident. "A must for all preschoolers"
"Number Train is the highlight of our week!"
"The best class we attended!"

Got a little one who loves sorting, matching and organising everything? 🧩🔢

They’re already developing some really important early maths skills without even realising it! 💛

At Number Train, we love turning those everyday skills into fun, hands-on learning through music, movement and making. 🚂✨

From building and sorting to counting, matching and exploring numbers, every activity is helping little minds develop the skills they’ll need for school — all while having lots of fun! 🥰

Come and see what we’re all about and let’s build those maths skills together!

🚂 Why Number Bonds Matter: Building Strong Mathematical Foundations

At Number Train, we know that developing a strong sense of number is one of the most important steps in a child’s mathematical journey. One of the key building blocks of number sense is understanding number bonds.

Number bonds help children see the relationship between numbers and understand that numbers can be broken apart and put back together in different ways. For example, knowing that 5 can be made from 2 and 3, or 1 and 4, helps children develop flexibility and confidence when working with numbers.

📸 In this activity, children are exploring number bonds in a hands-on way, matching parts to make a whole number. Practical experiences like these make abstract mathematical concepts meaningful and memorable.

Why are number bonds so important?

⭐ Develop Mental Maths Skills
Children who know their number bonds can solve calculations more quickly and efficiently without always relying on counting.

⭐ Build Number Sense
Understanding how numbers relate to one another helps children recognise patterns and make connections across different areas of maths.

⭐ Support Addition and Subtraction
Number bonds provide the foundation for learning addition and subtraction facts, helping children understand how numbers combine and separate.

⭐ Prepare for More Advanced Maths
A secure understanding of number bonds supports future learning in multiplication, division, fractions, and problem-solving.

⭐ Increase Confidence
When children understand numbers deeply, they approach mathematical challenges with greater confidence and independence.

At Number Train, we believe that maths is about much more than learning facts—it’s about developing a deep understanding of how numbers work. By exploring number bonds through play, investigation, and hands-on activities, children build the strong foundations they need for future mathematical success.

🚂 Strong number bonds today lead to confident mathematicians tomorrow!

🚂 Number Train Play Time 🚂
All aboard the Number Train for some fun, friendship and learning! 🌟

During our play time sessions, children enjoy playing games together that encourage them to take turns, share resources and work alongside their friends. Activities like matching and sorting games help children learn that everyone gets a chance to participate, while also making new friendships along the way.

✨ Benefits of turn-taking games:
• Develops patience and self-control
• Encourages sharing and cooperation
• Builds communication and social skills
• Helps children make and maintain friendships
• Supports listening and concentration skills
• Boosts confidence when playing as part of a group
• Teaches fairness and respect for others

Through play, children learn valuable life skills that will support them both in the classroom and beyond. 💙

🎨✨ Creative Craft Time Every Week! ✨🎨

Each week, our children enjoy a different craft activity, giving them the opportunity to explore a variety of materials including paint, glue, sponges, brushes and printing tools.

Painting is a fantastic way for children to develop their creativity and self-expression while strengthening fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and concentration. Exploring different colours, textures and techniques helps build confidence and encourages children to experiment with their own ideas.

Gluing activities are equally important, helping children develop hand strength, control and precision as they carefully place and stick materials. These experiences support early writing skills, problem-solving and spatial awareness, all while creating something they can be proud of.

Our craft sessions are always fun and a little bit messy, allowing children to learn through exploration with the support of caring adults. Best of all, we provide all the resources and handle the clean-up, so you can enjoy seeing the finished masterpiece without the mess at home! 😊

“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.” – Benjamin Franklin

There is something magical about watching children learn through doing. This week at Number Train, our little learners explored numbers using sand, filling and tipping, moulding and counting as they built their own number representations.

Hands-on learning gives children the opportunity to explore concepts with all of their senses. Rather than simply watching someone else demonstrate a skill, children are actively involved in the learning process. They can experiment, make mistakes, problem-solve, and discover ideas for themselves.

When children have the time and space to do rather than just watch, learning becomes more meaningful and memorable. Activities like these help to develop early maths skills, fine motor control, concentration, language, and confidence—all while having lots of fun!

At Number Train, we know that some of the most powerful learning happens when little hands are busy exploring. 🚂✨
