Fractions Tray

by Bigjigs

A hands-on Fractions Tray for seeing, moving and comparing parts of a whole.

Some maths ideas only start to feel real when your child can pick them up, turn them over and place them beside another piece. The Bigjigs Fractions Tray gives written fractions a place in the hand, with colour-coded tiles from 1 to 1/12 arranged in a tray and decimals on the reverse.

The table activity that comes back out again

There is something lovely about an activity that does not need a big set-up to feel useful. One afternoon your child may use the Fractions Tray to fill each space by colour. Another day, they might test where a smaller piece belongs, or compare a few tiles side by side before packing them back into the tray. Eventually it becomes the kind of thing that can sit on the table for a quiet maths try, then slide away when the next part of the day begins.

Best for

Best for families with a child aged 3 years+ who want fractions to feel hands-on rather than only written down. Its 30cm x 30cm x 1.8cm tray size makes it a table-top activity, so it is a steady fit when you want something meaningful without needing a large floor area.

Product overview

A more touchable way into fractions

At home, learning rarely arrives in one neat lesson; it comes back in short tries between breakfast, homework and the next thing calling. At first, your child might simply place the fraction tiles back into the tray. Soon, they may start sliding different pieces beside each other and seeing how parts relate to the same whole. Some days it is halves and quarters. Other days it is the smaller pieces, or a turn of the tile to notice the decimal on the back. Before long, fractions feel less like something distant on a page and more like something your little one can come back to, move around and make sense of in their own time.

Product details

Thoughtful details that make a difference

Fractions your child can actually compare

The colour-coded tiles let your child handle fraction parts and place them in relation to each other. That physical comparing is what makes the idea feel more approachable
Why this matters

It gives your little one a hands-on way to explore fraction relationships through play.

More to revisit as they are ready

Because the set runs from 1 whole through to 1/12, your child does not need to use every idea at once. They can begin with the larger, simpler
Why this matters

The play can change as your child becomes more familiar with how the parts relate.
