Abstract: This study builds upon previous research on pop-up books as a multisensory learning tool by focusing specifically on their impact on early numeracy skills and environmental awareness among daycare learners in the Philippines. Using a quasi-experimental design, the study compares the effectiveness of a custom-designed pop-up book, “Counting with Nature†, against traditional 2D books in teaching basic counting (numbers 1-10) and environmental concepts (plant growth and care). Pre- and post-tests, engagement surveys, and observational checklists will assess improvements in numeracy retention, ecological awareness, and learner engagement. The study aims to provide empirical evidence on how interactive, multisensory books can enhance foundational math skills and environmental stewardship in early childhood education.
