Stamp Game
The Stamp Game is a Montessori maths material used by an individual child to practice the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It is a wonderfully simple but effective learning from home option that, once presented to your child correctly, they can work on independently.
There are several options for accessing the Stamp Game:
1. Buy the Stamp Game, for example here
2. Use an online version
3. Use the instructions below to make your own DIY version
None of these will come with instructions on how to use the Stamp Game so we've provided a booklet and video series to show you.

We will be providing information on the extension exercises (using the discs and the large skittle) in the near future.
We are grateful to the Australian Montessori Training Institute (AMTI) for the use of their videos.
