What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
Quick Pick Counting is a hands-on math game for children who are blind or have low vision, using a deck of 50 cards that combine large print numbers with tactile raised-line symbols so kids can count and recognize quantities by touch or sight. The cards support early numeracy concepts — counting, matching, and number recognition — without requiring vision as the primary sense. This is a complete, self-contained set that's ready to use right out of the package. The raised-line tactile graphics work best when a child has some familiarity reading tactile symbols; pairing it with a teacher or vision specialist early on will help maximize the learning value.
