This basic set provides you with 74 wooden rods in a plastic tray and a basic guide to using Cuisenaire rods. The rods are various sizes and colours enabling you to affix values to them. Included in the set is a plastic storage tray and an ideas guide to help you get started with Cuisenaire. Please note that Cuisenaire Rods sets all contain some small pieces (1cm cubed) and are therefore unsuitable for very young children.
