Buzz Bonds is a collection of five visual number bond games for young learners. Children use groups of bees, leaves and a sunflower to see how parts combine to make a whole, turning number bonds into a clear hands-on activity.
Start by making two-part number bonds, then find a missing part and work out totals. The final two games extend the same visual structure to three parts, giving children a natural progression from simple part-whole relationships to more flexible number reasoning.

Make Number Bonds
Start here by choosing two bee groups that combine to make the target number. Children build number bonds up to 5, 10 or 20 and see both parts together in a clear part-whole model.

Find the Missing Part
One bee group is already shown and children work out the missing group needed to complete the number bond. The game develops counting on and part-whole understanding with targets up to 5, 10 or 20.
Play Missing Part
Find the Total
Both parts are shown on the leaves. Add the two bee groups, then drag the correct total into the sunflower. This reverses the earlier challenge and helps children connect the parts with the whole.
Play Two-Part Total
Three-Part Bonds
Extend the part-whole model to three bee groups and totals up to 30. Children can find one, two or all three missing parts, giving a flexible next step after the two-part number bond games.
Play Three-Part Bonds
Three-Part Totals
Finish the progression by combining three given bee groups and finding the whole. Add all three parts, then drag the correct total into the sunflower, with totals up to 30.
