So excited about this product 🤩 Lakeshore’s So excited about this product 🤩

Lakeshore’s Early Childhood Learning products are perfect for early brain/language development and inspire every kid to learn through play! 

The Trace & Write Number Center makes number formation and counting to 20 a breeze! Even though my students technically know how to write their numbers and count to 20, they ALWAYS need the extra practice. 

I love how all of Lakeshore’s products are created with education in mind and are high-quality, durable, easy-to-clean!
