Develop a screen-free, mechanical educational toy that builds early math skills (ages 2–5) through tactile, interactive play—addressing cognitive development, safety, durability, and market demand.

• Early math skills show the highest correlation with long-term academic success, surpassing early literacy and attention, according to large-scale meta-analyses.

• Tactile learning enhances cognitive development and numerical retention by reinforcing sensorimotor pathways during early childhood (ages 3–6).

• Mechanical, screen-free toys promote spatial reasoning and problem-solving while addressing market and safety concerns tied to electronic components and loose parts.

• Utilizes rotatable numerical discs (0–9) and modular coupling links to enable physical representation of counting, grouping, and basic operations like multiplication.

• Incorporates visual barriers and structured rows to reduce cognitive load and support spatial organization of early math concepts.

• Engineered with snap-fit tolerances and ASTM F963-compliant materials to ensure child safety, mechanical durability, and manufacturability.

A portable, modular, mechanical math toy that teaches number recognition and basic arithmetic through physical manipulation—encouraging fine motor skills, early logic, and hands-on learning without electronics.
