I wanted my own child (and others) to actually feel and play with ideas, not just memorize stuff. So I started making hands-on games and kits that help kids and grown-ups get comfortable, especially with math and reading. ### My Learning Kits & Games - **Yonjuu (四十) Card Game:** Math usually freaks people out, so I made Yonjuu - a simple card game where you build up to 40. The cards show numbers as actual quantities, so you don’t just learn formulas, you see and feel them. Kids as young as 3, adults, families, teachers - anyone can play. It’s not just about math concepts, but also boosts focus, memory, and teamwork. (Hands-on math games, early numeracy kits) - **Math from Scratch Kit:** Tiny hands need real stuff, not just paper and pencil. This kit uses cubes, dough, and Yonjuu cards so kids can touch and move numbers around. It helps with early math, logical thinking, pattern spotting, and problem-solving. - **Learn to Read, Read to Learn Kit:** Reading is tricky for many kids. My kit uses letter cards and sensory activities, based on Science of Reading ideas, to make phonics and reading feel less scary. For any age, at home or school, it helps with decoding, vocab, and comprehension. (Science of Reading activities, sensory learning tools) ### Beyond Just Kits I use these kits in my workshops and teacher trainings too. For me, they’re all about helping kids, parents, and teachers rediscover how fun learning can be. Sometimes it’s slow, sometimes messy, but it’s always real. ## Highlights Browse through Hattennoki's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/hattennoki/educational-games-learning-kits/featured) - [Video: (Hero Media) This is a step-by-step guide on how to play the basic version of my Yonjuu card game.

Delhi born, US trained, I lost my mom but gained a new view – heritage matters, even in math class. My son Kai sparked it all. Was a high school math teacher, but saw kids struggling, confidence missing. So, I switched gears. Now, it’s all about blending real learning, emotional care, and a bit of family magic. We want kids to thrive, wherever they land. ### My work - **Consultancy, Workshops & Training**: We work with schools, parents, and educators. Sessions dig deep into hands-on math workshops, Science of Reading, and social-emotional learning. - **Kids & Family Learning Programs**: Our Math from Scratch and Learn to Read, Read to Learn programs build real confidence, not just rote skills. Group or solo, always joyful. - **Learning Tools & Games**: We create stuff like Yonjuu math cards and play-based learning kits. Kids get to touch, play, and really understand what they’re learning. ## More services from Hattennoki - [Professional Development & Educational Workshops](https://mytribe.in/hattennoki/professional-development-educational-workshops) · ₹1,800-7,500 per participant (estimate) - [Academic Tutoring & Enrichment Programs](https://mytribe.in/hattennoki/academic-tutoring-enrichment-programs) · ₹1,000-2,500 per session (estimate) ## Book To book Hattennoki, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Educational%20Games%20%26%20Learning%20Kits%20by%20Hattennoki.)
