48 Translucent Number Tiles for Light Tables – 4 Sets of 1-10 & Symbols (Red, Blue, Yellow, Green)

This set includes 48 translucent number tiles and arithmetic symbols, designed for use on light tables or light boards. It contains four complete sets of numbers 1 through 10 plus four arithmetic symbols (+, -, ×, ÷) in red, blue, yellow, and green. Each tile measures 2 inches with raised edges for easy gripping. Suitable for children aged 3 and up, these tiles support early math, color recognition, and fine motor activities.

What’s Inside the 48-Piece Set?

The mini jar holds 48 pieces: four sets of numbers 1–10 and four arithmetic symbols. Each set is a different translucent color — red, blue, yellow, and green. The numbers and symbols are made from a durable translucent plastic that lets light pass through, creating bright effects on a light table. The pieces are about 2 inches tall, with raised edges that make them easy for small fingers to pick up and move.

How These Numbers Work with Light Tables

When placed on a light table or light board, the translucent tiles glow in their respective colors. This makes them ideal for color mixing experiments, matching games, and exploring how light interacts with color. Children can sort tiles by color, arrange them in sequences, or use them to count and practice basic arithmetic. The visual appeal of the glowing numbers can help keep young learners engaged during math activities.

Designed for Small Hands

The tiles are sized for little hands, with a width of 2 inches and a raised edge that provides a good grip. The raised design also helps prevent the tiles from sliding around on smooth surfaces. This makes them easier for toddlers and preschoolers to manipulate, promoting fine motor skill development. The tiles are lightweight but sturdy enough for repeated use.

Storing the Set

All 48 tiles come in a transparent mini jar with a screw-top lid. The jar is compact, making it easy to store on a shelf or in a toy bin. After play, children can practice tidying up by placing the tiles back into the jar. The jar also keeps the pieces together so nothing gets lost.

Safety and Age Recommendation

These tiles contain small parts and pose a choking hazard. They are not intended for children under 3 years of age. Adult supervision is recommended for younger children within the recommended age range. The tiles are made from non-toxic materials, but no specific certifications are mentioned in the product information.

Common Questions About These Translucent Numbers

Can these numbers be used on a regular table without a light?

Yes, they can be used on any flat surface. The tiles are colored translucent plastic, so they work fine for counting, sorting, and spelling even without a light table. However, the light-up effect only happens when placed on a light source.

How many of each number and symbol are included?

There are four of each number 1 through 10, one per color. So you have four number 1s (red, blue, yellow, green), four number 2s, and so on. The four arithmetic symbols are also included in each color, giving you four plus signs, four minus signs, four multiplication signs, and four division signs.

Are the tiles dishwasher safe?

The product information does not specify cleaning instructions. To keep them in good condition, it is best to wipe them clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry them thoroughly. Do not submerge in water or put them in a dishwasher.
