Magic Counting

$24.99

Discover the magical world of numbers, shapes, and geometry that surrounds you every day!

What if the way that we traditionally teach kids how to count misses the clear connections between numbers, shapes, and the world around them?

Nabeel Khan invites you to draw on your child’s innate interest in geometry, patterns, and shapes as an intuitive and fun way to learn about numbers — starting their maths journey from a place of playfulness, curiosity, and tangible connection to their environment. We can find numbers and shapes everywhere: in the natural world, in art and architecture, in symbolism, and in the sky above us.

This approach is just as straightforward as 1, 2, 3, 4, but also provides kids the tools to see their world in a new way, and the agency to understand the fundamental connection between numeracy and geometry, changing their perspective for life.

Welcome to the world of magic counting!

  • Excellent gift for children who are more artistically inclined that will help them realise the exciting creative potential of numbers and geometry!

  • A brilliant tool for educators and librarians to help students to ‘see’ numbers and get curious about how mathematics offers a unique and mind-expanding lens with which to view our world.

Ages 3–7 | 210mm × 198mm | 22pp with flaps | CMYK + 1 metallic ink throughout

Nabeel Khan is an artist and photographer. Born in London, he studied in the UK before starting a career in the TV/film post-production world.

In his late twenties, he first started noticing the commonality of geometry in all religions, and he pursued more knowledge about this at the Prince’s School of Traditional Arts in London.

He moved to Australia eight years ago and dove head first into his art, which is heavily inspired by the eternal shapes he had been learning about.

Tete Garcia is a Spanish illustrator who has found her creative home in the coastal landscapes of Sydney's Northern Beaches.
Tete's work is all about joy, fun, and a splash of vibrant and bold colours! Her's art captures the beauty of everyday life, celebrating quotidian situations and the serenity of nature with a captivating charm.
Her mission is to create art with value, meaning, and purpose; looking for more than a visual but also a story behind it.
When she's not bringing her illustrations to life, you'll find Tete crocheting away, exploring museums, sipping coffee by the beach, or trying to catch some waves while learning to surf.
