Literacy and Numeracy

“What’s your favorite number?” is a question many parents ask their children. What they may not know is that by encouraging their children to find the answer to this question, they are laying the foundation for numeracy and literacy. Play and exploration allows children to build essential knowledge, skills, and confidence through hands-on experience. Literacy and numeracy are important skills for children to develop. At play, children discover themselves and their world. They learn to solve problems, explore new ideas and become confident individuals. Literacy and numeracy are the building blocks of academic achievement. Below The Willow Tree is a one-stop destination for resources for personal growth as well as for the classroom.

Below The Willow Tree’s range has been curated by early childhood teacher Sara. Many of our items are open-ended and holistic. We also offer a great range of books for parents / educators.
